ACPICA commit 29cc8dbc5463a93625bed87d7550a8bed8913bf4 create_buffer_field is a deferred op that is typically processed in load pass 2. However, disassembly of control method contents walk the parse tree with ACPI_PARSE_LOAD_PASS1 and AML_CREATE operators are processed in a later walk. This is a problem when there is a control method that has the same name as the AML_CREATE object. In this case, any use of the name segment will be detected as a method call rather than a reference to a buffer field. If this is detected as a method call, it can result in a mal-formed parse tree if the control methods have parameters. This change in processing AML_CREATE ops earlier solves this issue by inserting the named object in the ACPI namespace so that references to this name would be detected as a name string rather than a method call.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
