As I am reading ACPICA Spec,I noticed AcpiOsGetLine() has same problem 
as gets(3) in its nature.Fortunately, it is call if and only if called 
when something is wrong in ACPICA system  and the input is expected 
to be issued by developer, so thats not so large problem,I think.
But that is usually security hole.
