Ok. I suggest that:
1) If Thomas (Gleixner) or whoever wants to try out or needs it urgently, he
can (must) use a recent kernel with my patches applied.
2) You continue to get your changes into ACPICA.
Eventually or best would be if you add whatever is needed to
allow adding of tables as well (which will be there automatically if
I understood the description of your changes correctly).
3) Either you give it a try yourself or give me short description for
what I have to look out for and I can re-post the Linux patches
based on your ACPICA changes, once they show up in the Linux kernel.
Best give me a ping as soon as I should look at it.

Thanks!

Thomas

PS: You might want to add the BGRT definition in ACPICA already, the
tiny one line-liner...
