I'm going to apply this, but your Fixes tag is not correct. validation_count was added to struct acpi_table_desc by commit commit 174cc7187e6f088942c8e74daa7baff7b44b33c9 Author: Lv Zheng <[email protected]> Date: Wed Dec 14 15:04:25 2016 +0800 ACPICA: Tables: Back port acpi_get_table_with_size() and early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() from Linux kernel from the 4.10 time frame, so IMO it should be Fixes: 174cc7187e6f (ACPICA: Tables: Back port acpi_get_table_with_size() and early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() from Linux kernel) > --- > > Changes in v2: > * compile fix s/table/table_header/.
