tests: pc: acpi: drop not needed 'expected SSDT' blobs

Assert happens because qemu-system-x86_64 generates
SSDT table and test looks for a corresponding expected
table to compare with.

However there is no expected SSDT blob anymore, since
QEMU souldn't generate one. As it happens BIOS is not
able to read ACPI tables from QEMU and fallbacks to
embeded legacy ACPI codepath, which generates SSDT.
That happens due to wrongly sized endiannes conversion
which makes
  uint8_t BiosLinkerLoaderEntry.alloc.zone
end up with 0 due to truncation of 32 bit integer
which on host is 1 or 2.

Fix it by dropping invalid cpu_to_le32() as uint8_t
doesn't require any conversion.

That warnings are due to broken endianess handling in iasl,
it looks at table header size and says it's too big
because it doesn't take into account that all integers in ACPI
are little-endian.

Fix the problem.

We have always some warnings but they were already here in the previous
releases.
