Sudeep Holla 9a3b8655db ACPICA: Fix wrong interpretation of PCC address
ACPICA commit 41be6afacfdaec2dba3a5ed368736babc2a7aa5c

With the PCC Opregion in the firmware and we are hitting below kernel crash:

-->8
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000010
 Workqueue: pm pm_runtime_work
 pstate: 80000005 (Nzcv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)

 ---[ end trace 24d8a032fa77b68a ]---

The reason for the crash is that the PCC channel index passed via region.address
in acpi_ex_store_object_to_node is interpreted as the channel subtype
incorrectly.

Assuming the PCC op_region support is not used by any other type, let us
remove the subtype check as the AML has no access to the subtype information.
Once we remove it, the kernel crash disappears and correctly complains about
missing PCC Opregion handler.

ACPI Error: No handler for Region [PFRM] ((____ptrval____)) [PCC] (20210730/evregion-130)
ACPI Error: Region PCC (ID=10) has no handler (20210730/exfldio-261)
ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB.ETH0._PS3 due to previous error (AE_NOT_EXIST) (20210730/psparse-531)

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.
