Considering this case:
1. A program opens a sysfs table file 65535 times, it can increase
validation_count and first increment cause the table to be mapped:
validation_count = 65535
2. AML execution causes "Load" to be executed on the same
table, this time it cannot increase validation_count, so
validation_count remains:
validation_count = 65535
3. The program closes sysfs table file 65535 times, it can decrease
validation_count and the last decrement cause the table to be
unmapped:
validation_count = 0
4. AML code still accessing the loaded table, kernel crash can be
observed.
To prevent that from happening, add a validation_count threashold.
When it is reached, the validation_count can no longer be
incremented/decremented to invalidate the table descriptor (means
preventing table unmappings)
Note that code added in acpi_tb_put_table() is actually a no-op but
changes the warning message into a "warn once" one. Lv Zheng.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
