Re: [PATCH 0/2] Implement overriding of arbitrary ACPI tables via initrd

Hi Len, Hi Robert, hi Lin,

what's your opinion about these patches?
I just sent a tiny bug fix which slipped in when I did
last minute cleanups.

Is the additional acpi_os_phys_table_override() function which
would be needed in ACPICA sources acceptable?

I'd appreciate if the acpica adoption can be made by
acpica people, but if you give green light, I can also
re-write the first patch against acpica sources.

As this needs syncing with acpica it would be great if the first
steps can be made, so that this can show up in 3.2 release.

Thanks,

Thomas
