[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/9] tests: apci: consolidate and cleanup ACPI test code

[Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com>]

While working on adding tests for virt/arm board (uefi/XSDT/64-bit table pointers),
I found it's rather difficult to deal with mixed ACPI testing code that we've
collected so far. So instead of just adding a pile of XSDT hacks on top, here
goes small refactoring series:
   * that removes dead code
   * replaces reading tables with a fetch per table everywhere instead of
     mix of field by field and whole table
   * consolidates the way tables are read (reduces code duplication)
   * test no longer depends on ACPI structures from QEMU (i.e. doesn't affected
     by mistakes there) 
   * fixiex FACS not beint compared against reference tables
Overall test is reduced on ~170LOC and hopefully it makes easier to add more
stuff on top.

PS:
Series depends on '[PATCH v3 0/8] hw: acpi: RSDP fixes and refactoring'
to avoid nontrivial conflicts

PS2:
arm/virt test patches fill follow up a separate series on top of this one
for not to mix things up
