Why do we need C code to generate the "static" asl? Can't we just
manually writing the asl code here and get rid of libxl_mk_dsdt_arm.c?
Whilst I agree that manually writing the asl code sounds more appealing,
we need to write one node per processor. So currently this would be 128
nodes and this will likely increase in the future.
Generating the asl has the advantage to be able to add new property in
the processor node easily without having to modify one by one all the nodes.
