From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 0c9992315e738e7d6e927ef36839a466b080dba6 ] ACPICA commit b1c3656ef4950098e530be68d4b589584f06cddc Prevent acpi_ns_walk_namespace() from crashing when called with start_node equal to ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT if the Namespace has not been instantiated yet and acpi_gbl_root_node is NULL. For instance, this can happen if the kernel is run with "acpi=off" in the command line.
