The intel_pmc_ipc() function uses ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER to allocate memory
for the ACPI evaluation result but never frees it, causing a 192-byte
memory leak on each call.
This leak is triggered during network interface initialization when the
stmmac driver calls intel_mac_finish() -> intel_pmc_ipc().

Add __free(kfree) for ACPI object to properly release the allocated buffer.
