ACPI: Harden acpi_table_parse_entries() against BIOS bug Parsing acpi table entries may fall into an infinite loop on a buggy BIOS which has entry length=0 in acpi table. Instead of kernel hang with few failure clue which leads to heavy lifting debug effort, this patch hardens kernel boot by booting into non NUMA mode. The debug info left in log buffer helps people identify the issue. Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
