[PATCH] ACPI: PCC: Fix race condition by removing static qualifier
From: Pengjie Zhang
Date: Wed Dec 10 2025 - 08:28:50 EST
The variable 'ret' in acpi_pcc_address_space_setup() is currently
declared with the 'static' storage specifier. This can lead to race
conditions in a multithreaded environment.
Remove the 'static' qualifier to ensure 'ret' is allocated directly
on the stack as a local variable.
Fixes: a10b1c99e2dc ("ACPI: PCC: Setup PCC Opregion handler only if platform interrupt is available")
