From: Erik Kaneda <erik.kaneda@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 5ddbd77181dfca61b16d2e2222382ea65637f1b9 ] ACPICA commit 29cc8dbc5463a93625bed87d7550a8bed8913bf4 create_buffer_field is a deferred op that is typically processed in load pass 2. However, disassembly of control method contents walk the parse tree with ACPI_PARSE_LOAD_PASS1 and AML_CREATE operators are processed in a later walk. This is a problem when there is a control method that has the same name as the AML_CREATE object. In this case, any use of the name segment will be detected as a method call rather than a reference to a buffer field. If this is detected as a method call, it can result in a mal-formed parse tree if the control methods have parameters. This change in processing AML_CREATE ops earlier solves this issue by inserting the named object in the ACPI namespace so that references to this name would be detected as a name string rather than a method call.
