Thanks for the memory dump. I will look at this against the ACPI spec
and get back to you.

I think that we may need to change the memory scan code (in tbxfroot.c)
to search for the first "RSD PTR" string with an associated table that
has a valid checksum. I also think that this has been requested before.
