X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0f2d6a308210caaa5e0ebf9c085d87f4a2c06bfa;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

platform/x86: dell-descriptor: Use new buffer-based WMI API

Use the new buffer-based WMI API to also support ACPI firmware
implementations that do not use ACPI buffers for the descriptor.
