I think I made the point on either an earlier version of this, or a
similar thread, that the point of the validate callback stuff is to make
sure that the kernel is correctly configured to use the extension in
question or an extension it depends on. It's not the kernel's job to
make sure that the firmware has not reported having an extension without
one that it depends on (at least it is not in devicetree land, and I can
only assume that ACPI is by and large the same.
ziccamoa and za64rs don't depend on kernel configuration and neither do
zaamo and zalrsc, so these validate callbacks should be removed.
Cheers,
Conor.
