What is different from the previous version is that this patch update the 
copyright year and the "if...else" coding style.

I have taken a look at the function TestPointGetAcpi(). The variable Table is 
first initialized to NULL by
DumpAcpiXsdt()/DumpAcpiRsdt(). The reference code is "*OutTable = NULL"(line 
667). And it will be assigned
a value next. The reference code is "*OutTable = Table"(line 689).

And with my changes, the stack variable Table(equivalent  to *OutTable in 
DumpAcpiXsdt/ DumpAcpiRsdt) can still be
initialized to NULL or assigned a value. What I did is intended to check the 
address of "Table",
since there is no point to perform operations to "Table" if its address is NULL.

Thanks,
Shenglei
