James Seo c9ba592580 hwmon: (hp-wmi-sensors) Fix failure to load on EliteDesk 800 G6
The EliteDesk 800 G6 stores a raw WMI string within the ACPI object in its
BIOS corresponding to one instance of HPBIOS_PlatformEvents.Name. This is
evidently a valid way of representing a WMI data item as far as the
Microsoft ACPI-WMI mapper is concerned, but is preventing the driver from
loading.

This seems quite rare, but add support for such strings. Treating this as a
quirk pretty much means adding that support anyway.

Also clean up an oversight in update_numeric_sensor_from_wobj() in which
the result of hp_wmi_strdup() was being used without error checking.

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.
