If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" [ 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.
