Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: mxm-wmi: fix memleak in mxm_wmi_call_mx[ds|mx]()
Git-commit: 727cc0147f5066e359aca65cc6cc5e6d64cc15d8
Patch-mainline: v6.2-rc1
References: git-fixes
The ACPI buffer memory (out.pointer) returned by wmi_evaluate_method()
is not freed after the call, so it leads to memory leak.
The method results in ACPI buffer is not used, so just pass NULL to
wmi_evaluate_method() which fixes the memory leak.
Fixes: 99b38b4acc0d ("platform/x86: add MXM WMI driver.")
