Mark Langsdorf 62dc2440eb ACPI: custom_method: fix potential use-after-free issue
commit e483bb9a99 upstream.

In cm_write(), buf is always freed when reaching the end of the
function.  If the requested count is less than table.length, the
allocated buffer will be freed but subsequent calls to cm_write() will
still try to access it.

Remove the unconditional kfree(buf) at the end of the function and
set the buf to NULL in the -EINVAL error path to match the rest of
function.

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.
