Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fixes for dell-wmi

This patch series adds check if Dell WMI descriptor structure is valid and
fixes processing WMI events on devices with WMI interface version 0.

After testing, second patch is good candidate for backporting into stable
kernels, but problem is that it cannot be used without first patch. So I
let decision to other people.

Gabriele and Michał, this patch series should fix processing events on
yours Dell laptops (you have in DSDT defined version 0). Can you test it?

Pali Rohár (2):
  dell-wmi: Check if Dell WMI descriptor structure is valid
  dell-wmi: Process only one event on devices with interface version 0
