refer to existing names
Patch-mainline: v4.14-rc1
Git-commit: 3ddd3f6a94108a5d2abfaa2a2f809b1520361e5e
References: bsc#1117419
ACPICA commit 9a252114197409290813bee570e9d53c22b99d32
This change allows compilation of code like the following:
definition_block (...)
{
External (ABCD.EFGH)
Device (ABCD)
{
Name (IJLK,0)
}
}
but does not allow compilation of code like the following:
definition_block (...)
{
External (ABCD)
Device (ABCD)
{
Name (EFGH,0)
}
}
