If the call to acpi_ds_init_aml_walk() fails, then we have to undo the
walk state push done by acpi_ds_create_walk_state(). Otherwise, the new
walk state (which has just been freed) will remain on the thread's
walk_state_list and be dereferenced in acpi_ps_parse_aml() when we try
to get the new state.
You can observe this when reading e.g.
/sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0C0F:01/status
