[PATCH] platform/x86: intel: int1092: intel_sar: fix _DSM argument4 type mismatch issue

From: Ivan Hu
Date: Tue Aug 15 2023 - 06:25:39 EST


Encountered a type mismatch as described below:
\_SB.WCCD._DSM: Argument #4 type mismatch - Found [Integer], ACPI requires
[Package]
This is because the argument#4(arg3) is integer.
According to the ACPI specification, the arg3 should be a package.
_DSM (Device Specific Method)
This optional object is a control method that enables devices to provide device
specific control functions that are consumed by the device driver.
Arguments: (4)
Arg0 - A Buffer containing a UUID
Arg1 - An Integer containing the Revision ID
Arg2 - An Integer containing the Function Index
Arg3 - A Package that contains function-specific arguments

The solution involves rectifying arg3 to be a package for the _DSM method.
Furthermore, the firmware needs to ensure that ACPI table arg3 is a package as
well. The suggested amendment is as follows:
If ((Arg3 == Zero))
{
WDMC [0x02] = WCS0
}
should modify as,
If (((ToInteger(Derefof (Arg3 [Zero]))) == Zero))
{
WDMC [0x02] = WCS0
}
