Hi Patrick,
We've been back and forth on this, but we still disagree on the
allocations etc, but I don't think it's that important to keep the
patch out due to this.
Can we move the table generation to the ACPI subsystem?
efi_acpi_register() will convert the memory as needed, so I was
wondering why the creation itself can't be done there. If you simply
fill table_start_high/table_end_hi, EFI will install the config tables
properly
Thanks
