[PATCH v4 32/35] x86: Allow devices to write to DSDT

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Tue Jul 7 21:12:09 CEST 2020


Call the new core function to inject ASL programmatically into the DSDT.
This is made up of fragments generated by devices that have the
inject_dsdt() method. The normal, compiled ASL file is added after this.

(no changes since v3)

Changes in v3:
- Refactor the code to remove the extra memcpy()
- Recalculate the DSDT checksum only once
- Add a comment as to why the checksum byte is set to 0
