panic in AcpiExReleaseMutex

[Moore, Robert]

Then I think you are stuck with figuring out why AcquiredMutexList is NULL.

AcquiredMutexList is set in AcpiExLinkMutex, clearing in AcpiExUnlinkMutex.

In AcpiExAcquireMutex, AcpiExLinkMutex is called after the mutex is successfully acquired, and only on the first acquisition.

In AcpiExReleaseMutexObject, AcpiExUnLinkMutex is called, but only if the Mutex OwnerThread ID is non-zero.
