From: Dan Williams <dan.j.willi...@intel.com>
Reading an ACPI table through the /sys/firmware/acpi/tables interface
more than 65,536 times leads to the following log message:
ACPI Error: Table ffff88033595eaa8, Validation count is zero after
increment
(20170119/tbutils-423)
Add the missing acpi_put_table() so the table ->validation_count is
decremented after each read.
