dell-wmi, hp-wmi, msi-wmi: check wmi_get_event_data() return value
When acpi_evaluate_object() is passed ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER, the caller must kfree the returned buffer if AE_OK is returned. The callers of wmi_get_event_data() pass ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER, and thus must check its return value before accessing or kfree() on the buffer. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
