How about elaborating on this in the comment like below?
QEMU_PSCI_CONDUIT_DISABLED means PSCI is not implemented by QEMU. In
this case we must have an EL3 firmware, which will most likely provide
PSCI to the guest with the SMC conduit. If this assumption is wrong,
then it is no worse than assuming PSCI is not available to the guest
when it should be. The only way a user can be sure that the ACPI tables
match what the firmware supports is if the firmware provides the ACPI
tables itself.
