Subject: [GIT PULL] ACPI fixes for v6.9-rc2

Hi Linus,

Please pull from the tag

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git \
 acpi-6.9-rc2

with top-most commit 6af71633b04036a12d165d03ce6f21145ec5a555

 Merge branch 'acpica'

on top of commit 4cece764965020c22cff7665b18a012006359095

 Linux 6.9-rc1

to receive ACPI fixes for 6.9-rc2.

These fix two issues that may lead to attempts to use memory that
has been freed already.

Specifics:

 - Drop __exit annotation from einj_remove() in the ACPI APEI code
   because this function can be called during runtime (Arnd Bergmann).

 - Make acpi_db_walk_for_fields() check acpi_evaluate_object() return
   value to avoid accessing memory that has been freed (Nikita
   Kiryushin).

Thanks!

      ACPICA: debugger: check status of acpi_evaluate_object() in
acpi_db_walk_for_fields()
