[PATCH] platform/x86: think-lmi: Fix "Call Trace" error warning

From: goutongchen

Date: Tue Jul 07 2026 - 05:22:28 EST


From: goutongchen <goutongchen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The maximum BIOS password length returned by the Lenovo platform BIOS/WMI
exceeded the size assumed by the think_lmi driver's internal static
buffer, causing the driver to trigger a WARN_ON() during self-checks.

Increase TLMI_PWD_BUFSIZE from 128 to 256 to eliminate the recurring
Call Trace warnings.

Here is the kernel warning triggered by the bug:

kernel: WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 665 at drivers/platform/x86/think-lmi.c:326
kernel: tlmi_get_pwd_settings.constprop.0+0xe6/0x130 [think_lmi]
kernel: Call Trace:
kernel: tlmi_analyze+0x31c/0x640 [think_lmi]
...

Fixes: 651b57dd4087 ("platform/x86: Move Lenovo files into lenovo subdir")
