[PATCH 6.12.y 2/4] ACPI: property: Disregard references in data-only subnode lists

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

[ Upstream commit d06118fe9b03426484980ed4c189a8c7b99fa631 ]

Data-only subnode links following the ACPI data subnode GUID in a _DSD
package are expected to point to named objects returning _DSD-equivalent
packages.  If a reference to such an object is used in the target field
of any of those links, that object will be evaluated in place (as a
named object) and its return data will be embedded in the outer _DSD
package.

For this reason, it is not expected to see a subnode link with the
target field containing a local reference (that would mean pointing
to a device or another object that cannot be evaluated in place and
therefore cannot return a _DSD-equivalent package).

Accordingly, simplify the code parsing data-only subnode links to
simply print a message when it encounters a local reference in the
target field of one of those links.

Moreover, since acpi_nondev_subnode_data_ok() would only have one
caller after the change above, fold it into that caller.
