They are for 2 different bases. My patch was for qemu's bochs bios and
this is for qemu-kvm/kvm/bios/rombios32.c. They are pretty divergent in
this area of setting up the ACPI tables. My patch is still needed for
the qemu base. I hope we'll be getting to one base soon :-)
Assuming the intent of the code was for MAX_RSDT_ENTRIES to include
external_tables, this patch looks correct. I think one additional check
would be needed (in my patch) to make sure that the code doesn't exceed
MAX_RSDT_ENTRIES when the external tables are being loaded.
My patch also puts all the code that calculates madt_size in the same
place, at the beginning of the table layout. I believe this is neater
and will avoid problems like this one in the future. As much as
possible, I think it best to get all the tables layed out, then fill
them in. If for some reason this is not acceptable, we need to add a big
note that no tables should be layed out after the madt because the madt
may grow further down in the code and overwrite the other table.
