Yes for ACPI on ARM. Probably no for DT.

Is it possible to move the code from arch/x86 into drivers/acpi directory
so that the code is shared across multiple ACPI based archs. We get more
coverage this way.

Can we fallback to the allocate everything behavior if we can't use the
stuff from FW or would it be too late to recover?

We can prevent regressions this way and issue a lot of warnings. We can
sit down and fix those warnings over time whether the issue is in 
UEFI BIOS or the code itself.
