Good point, you're right. Dan/Rafael, is it OK to just remove this patch entirely, and call acpi_evaluate_object directly from nfit.c? The current way did feel a bit kludgey to me any way because I was allocating a buffer here (above), but trying to free it in the caller, which seems very ugly..

Open coding a call to acpi_evaluate_object() sounds good to me. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

_FIT is an ACPI method to request an updated NFIT (Nvdimm Firmware Interface Table) after a hotplug event. Add a function to evaluate the _FIT method and return a buffer with the updated NFIT.
