[PATCH] ACPI: tables: simplify acpi_parse_entries

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



acpi_parse_entries passes the table end pointer to the sub-table entry
handler. acpi_parse_entries itself could validate the end of an entry
against the table end using the length in the sub-table entry.

This patch adds the validation of the sub-table entry end using the
length field.This will help to eliminate the need to pass the table end
to the handlers.
