The whole "prefix_node" pointer is bogus. It seems to have the value 0x1000.

I wonder how that happened. It's loaded from 'scope_info->scope.node',
and it *should* be a valid pointer.

Can you add a print-out of

scope_info->common.descriptor_type

and check that it is ACPI_DESC_TYPE_STATE_WSCOPE (== 8). If it is not,
return early.

Or just something like the attatched, which just uses the root node
(and warns once) if it's not a valid WSCOPE thing.
