mainlining shenanigans
0e7f074145
Fix occasions in acpi_nfit_ctl where we check the command type without
validating whether we are parsing dimm vs bus level commands. Where the
command numbers alias between dimms and bus we can make the wrong
assumption just checking the raw command number. For example, with a
simple nfit_test mock up of the clear-error command we trigger the
following:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000094

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
