4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Edgar Cherkasov <echerkasov@....rtsoft.ru>

commit 08d9db00fe0e300d6df976e6c294f974988226dd upstream.

The i2c-scmi driver crashes when the SMBus Write Block transaction is
executed:

ACPI Error: Evaluating _SBW: 4 (20170831/smbus_cmi-185)

This problem occurs because the length of ACPI Buffer object is not
defined/initialized in the code before a corresponding ACPI method is
called. The obvious patch below fixes this issue.
