Subject: [PATCH] acpi: fix acpi_get_table() leak / acpi-sysfs denial of service

Reading an ACPI table through the /sys/firmware/acpi/tables interface
more than 65,536 times leads to the following log message:

ACPI Error: Table ffff88033595eaa8, Validation count is zero after increment
(20170119/tbutils-423)

...and the table being unavailable until the next reboot. Add the
missing acpi_put_table() so the table ->validation_count is decremented
after each read.

For now, should just return AE_OK instead of AE_LIMIT in acpi_tb_get_table().
Otherwise this fix will not be sufficient to fix all possible problem
Unless we can add acpi_put_table() for all acpi_get_table() invocation.
Let me send a patch for you to try.

Thanks and best regards
Lv
