we should go further.

please check, esp should fix that  from kernel acpi=off to kexec second kernel with  acpi=off for your system.

it turns out BIOS is using first 64k for mptable without reserve it.

so try to find good range for it instead of hard code it.
in case some bios try to use that range for sth.
