Aubrey Li 7f5704b6a1 ACPI: PRM: Remove unnecessary strict handler address checks 
Commit 088984c8d5 ("ACPI: PRM: Find EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME block for PRM
handler and context") added unnecessary strict handler address checks,
causing the PRM module to fail in translating memory error addresses.

Both static data buffer address and ACPI parameter buffer address may
be NULL if they are not needed, as described in section 4.1.2 PRM Handler
Information Structure of Platform Runtime Mechanism specification [1].

Here are two examples from real hardware:

----PRMT.dsl----

- staic data address is not used

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 reStructuredText 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.
