What we need to do is quite similar to what ARM does, and they seem to
prefer to have different ACPI code for Dom0/DomU, so I'm quite sure we could
do the same for x86 also. FWIW, when Boris and I discussed this we though it
would be better to have a single place where all the ACPI code resides, both
to create tables or to modify them.
Would it be a lot of work to leave it in tools/ for the time being and move
it later if we see that we could benefit from merging both? Or maybe leave
it in xen/common without linking it with the hypervisor just yet (but that
would need sorting out later anyway).
Roger.
