Subject: [PATCH] acpi: fix null pointer deference of hardware_id string
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2009 11:12:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1250133125.4044.19.camel@minggr.sh.intel.com> (raw)

Subject: [PATCH] acpi: fix null pointer deference of hardware_id string

This regression was caused by commit ed44482
"ACPICA: Major update for acpi_get_object_info external interface"

Don't need to set hardware_id string \0 terminated here,
acpi_get_object_info already handles it.
