Subject: x86: always explicitly map acpi memory Always map acpi tables, rather than assuming we can use the normal linear mapping to access the acpi tables. This is necessary in a virtual environment where the linear mappings are to pseudo-physical memory, but the acpi tables exist at a real physical address. It doesn't hurt to map in the normal non-virtual case, so just do it unconditionally.
