Based on even the native kernel complaining (just not dying) the
BIOS certainly isn't fully correct. This particularly includes (but isn't
necessarily limited to)
Name (CSDT, Package (0x18)
{
"CPU0CST ",
0x80000000,
0x80000000,
"CPU1CST ",
0x80000000,
0x80000000,
"CPU2CST ",
0x80000000,
0x80000000,
"CPU3CST ",
0x80000000,
0x80000000,
"CPU4CST ",
0x80000000,
0x80000000,
"CPU5CST ",
0x80000000,
0x80000000,
"CPU6CST ",

0x80000000,
"CPU7CST ",

})
listing invalid addressed for *all* CPUs (not just the ones actually
not present). Another point is that currently you may be luck in that
they may not get evaluated. If they can guarantee that this will
never get accessed, imo they should just leave it (and the dead
access) out.
