If an ACPI SSDT overlay is loaded after built-in tables
have been loaded e.g. via configfs or efivar_ssdt_load()
it is necessary to rewalk the namespace to resolve
references. Without this, relative and absolute paths
like ^PCI0.SBUS or \_SB.PCI0.SBUS are not resolved
correctly.

Make configfs load use the same method as efivar_ssdt_load().

Or if you want me to take this patch (without the other two in the
series), please let me know.

thanks. I think it would be the best if you take up this patch as it is an independent topic. In retrospect it wasn't a good idea to put it into this series.

Kind regards,
Niko
