agp/hp: fixup hp agp after ACPI changes
Commit 15b8dd53 changed the string in info->hardware_id from a static array to a pointer and added a length field. But instead of changing "sizeof(array)" to "length", we changed it to "sizeof(length)" (== 4), which corrupts the string we're trying to null-terminate. We no longer even need to null-terminate the string, but we *do* need to check whether we found a HID. If there's no HID, we used to have an empty array, but now we have a null pointer. The combination of these defects causes this oops: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000003) modprobe[895]: Oops 8804682956800 [1] ip is at zx1_gart_probe+0xd0/0xcc0 [hp_agp] http://marc.info/?l=linux-ia64&m=126264484923647&w=2Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: Émeric Maschino <emeric.maschino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
