[PATCH] pci: correctly allocate return buffers for osc calls
The OSC set and query functions do not allocate enough space for return
values, and set the output buffer length to a false, too large value. This
causes the acpi-ca code to assume that the output buffer is larger than it
actually is, and overwrite memory when copying acpi return buffers into
this caller provided buffer. In some cases this can cause kernel oops if
the memory that is overwritten is a pointer. This patch will change these
calls to use a dynamically allocated output buffer, thus allowing the
acpi-ca code to decide how much space is needed.
