platform/x86: wmi: Make input buffer mandatory when evaluating methods

Browse source

The ACPI-WMI specification declares in the section "ACPI Control Method
Naming Conventions and Functionality for Windows 2000 Instrumentation"
that a WMxx control method takes 3 arguments: instance, method id and
argument buffer. This is also the case even when the underlying WMI
method does not have any input arguments.

So if a WMI driver evaluates a WMI method without passing an input
buffer, ACPICA will log a warning complaining that the third argument
is missing.

Prevent this by checking that a input buffer was passed, and return
an error if this was not the case.

Tested on a Asus PRIME B650-Plus.
