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.

This patch tweaks the way pciehp requests control of the hotplug
hardware from BIOS. It now tries to invoke the ACPI _OSC method
for a specific hotplug controller only, rather than walking the
entire acpi namespace invoking all possible _OSC methods under
all host bridges. This allows us to gain control of each hotplug
controller individually, even if BIOS fails to give us control of
some other hotplug controller in the system.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
