ACPI: avoid empty file name in sysfs
Since commit bc45b1d39a925b56796bebf8a397a0491489d85c acpi tables are
allowed to have an empty signature and /sys/firmware/acpi/tables uses the
signature as filename. Applications using naive recursion through /sys
loop forever. A possible solution would be: (replacing the zero length
filename with the string "NULL")
