Add ACPI_NONSTRING for destination char arrays without a terminating NUL character. This is a follow-up to commit 2b82118845e0 ("ACPICA: Apply ACPI_NONSTRING") where a few more destination arrays were missed.

gcc-15: acpi: sprinkle random '__nonstring' crumbles around

2025-04-20T18:57:54+00:00

This is not great: I'd much rather introduce a typedef that is a "ACPI name byte buffer", and use that to mark these special 4-byte ACPI names that do not use NUL termination. But as noted in the previous commit ("gcc-15: make 'unterminated string initialization' just a warning") gcc doesn't actually seem to support that notion, so instead you have to just mark every single array declaration individually. So this is not pretty, but this gets rid of the bulk of the annoying warnings during an allmodconfig build for me. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ACPI: CPPC: Add definition for undefined FADT preferred PM profile value

2023-06-21T16:44:56+00:00

In the event a new preferred PM profile value is introduced it's best for code to be able to defensively guard against it so that the wrong settings don't get applied on a new system that uses this profile but ancient kernels.
