    ACPICA: Fix issues/fault with automatic "serialized" method support · 26294842
    Lin Ming 提交于
    History: This support changes a method to "serialized" on the fly if the
    method generates an AE_ALREADY_EXISTS error, indicating the possibility
    that it cannot handle reentrancy.
    
    This fix repairs a couple of issues seen in the field, especially on
    machines with many cores.
    
    1) Delete method children only upon the exit of the last thread, so
    as to not delete objects out from under running threads.
    
    2) Set the "serialized" bit for the method only upon the exit of the
    last thread, so as to not cause deadlock when running threads attempt
    to exit.
    
    3) Cleanup the use of the AML "MethodFlags" and internal method flags
    so that there is no longer any confustion between the two.
