Li Zetao 470188b09e ACPICA: Fix use-after-free in acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage()
There is an use-after-free reported by KASAN:

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in acpi_ut_remove_reference+0x3b/0x82
  Read of size 1 at addr ffff888112afc460 by task modprobe/2111

   </TASK>

The root cause of the problem is that the acpi_operand_object
is freed when acpi_ut_walk_package_tree() fails in
acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage(), lead to repeated release in
acpi_ut_copy_iobject_to_iobject(). The problem was introduced
by "8aa5e56eeb61" commit, this commit is to fix memory leak in
acpi_ut_copy_iobject_to_iobject(), repeatedly adding remove
operation, lead to "acpi_operand_object" used after free.

Fix it by removing acpi_ut_remove_reference() in
acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage(). acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage()
is called to copy an internal package object into another internal
package object, when it fails, the memory of acpi_operand_object
should be freed by the caller.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
