+AD4- Yeah, but I had to drop it again after noticing the guid+AF8-equals bits,
+AD4- and after not fixing up the GUID -+AD4- GUID+AF8-INIT rename.

+AD4- for-next in the above repo should have the proper base now, and acpi
+AD4- has the ACPI bits for Dan to test.

With one compile fix below the 'acpi' branch works for me. Please feel
free to add:

Tested-by: Dan Williams +ADw-dan.j.williams+AEA-intel.com+AD4-

...to the changes that touch drivers/acpi/nfit/, drivers/nvdimm/, and
tools/testing/nvdimm, but I'm ok if you omit it if the branch is about
to go immutable. Speaking of which, let me know when it does go
immutable because the new libnvdimm enabling for ACPI 6.2 and EFI 2.7
needs some new guid handling code.

Please apply the following or fold it into commit+AKA-c793ed7ccf42 +ACI-ACPI:
Switch to use generic guid+AF8-t in acpi+AF8-evaluate+AF8-dsm()+ACI-
