Wondering, if we can have a generic function (acpi_get_tbl_revision) to
obtain the revision number for any ACPI table, not just specific to MADT?

We could - I don't think there would be users other than code in this
patch though so I thought it would not be necessary.


Right, it might not be essential now but I see that MPAM will be another user of it once the MPAM patches are out.
