Dan, thanks for your fix.

Another one is the use-after-free issue in acpi_nfit_notify():

	/* Evaluate _FIT */
	status = acpi_evaluate_object(adev->handle, "_FIT", NULL, &buf);
        ...
 		acpi_desc->nfit =
			(struct acpi_nfit_header *)obj->buffer.pointer;
        ...
        kfree(buf.pointer);
