ACPICA: Namespace: Fix deadlock triggered by MLC support in dynamic table loading
The new module-level code (MLC) approach invokes MLC on the per-table basis, but the dynamic loading support of this is incorrect because of the lock order: acpi_ns_evaluate acpi_ex_enter_intperter acpi_ns_load_table (triggered by Load opcode) acpi_ns_exec_module_code_list acpi_ex_enter_intperter The regression is introduced by the following commit: Commit: 2785ce8d ACPICA Commit: 071eff738c59eda1792ac24b3b688b61691d7e7c Subject: ACPICA: Add per-table execution of module-level code This patch fixes this regression by unlocking the interpreter lock before invoking MLC. However, the unlocking is done to the acpi_ns_load_table(), in which the interpreter lock should be locked by acpi_ns_parse_table() but it wasn't.
