Subject: ACPICA: Fix acpi_evaluate_object_typed()
Patch-mainline: v4.13-rc7
Git-commit: 9b40eebcd339c47921ff8b04c77af7c762b74216
References: bsc#1117419
Commit 2d2a954375a0 (ACPICA: Update two error messages to emit
control method name) causes acpi_evaluate_object_typed() to fail
if its pathname argument is NULL, but some callers of that function
in the kernel, particularly acpi_nondev_subnode_data_ok(), pass
NULL as pathname to it and expect it to work.
For this reason, make acpi_evaluate_object_typed() check if its
pathname argument is NULL and fall back to using the pathname of
its handle argument if that is the case.
