[PATCH 6.15 03/34] ACPICA: Introduce ACPI_NONSTRING

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

6.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>

commit 6da5e6f3028d46e4fee7849e85eda681939c630b upstream.

ACPICA commit 878823ca20f1987cba0c9d4c1056be0d117ea4fe

In order to distinguish character arrays from C Strings (i.e. strings with
a terminating NUL character), add support for the "nonstring" attribute
provided by GCC. (A better name might be "ACPI_NONCSTRING", but that's
the attribute name, so stick to the existing naming convention.)

GCC 15's -Wunterminated-string-initialization will warn about truncation
of the NUL byte for string initializers unless the destination is marked
with "nonstring". Prepare for applying this attribute to the project.
