[PATCH v8 09/21] ARM64 / ACPI: Disable ACPI if FADT revision is less than 5.1

FADT Major.Minor version was introduced in ACPI 5.1, it is the same
as ACPI version.

In ACPI 5.1, some major gaps are fixed for ARM, such as updates in
MADT table for GIC and SMP init, without those updates, we can not
get the MPIDR for SMP init, and GICv2/3 related init information, so
we can't boot arm64 ACPI properly with table versions predating 5.1.

If firmware provides ACPI tables with ACPI version less than 5.1,
OS has no way to retrieve the configuration data that is necessary
to init SMP boot protocol and the GIC properly, so disable ACPI if
we get an FADT table with version less that 5.1.
