Yes, you are right. What I mean for the "no functional change" because
of most handler passed to acpi_table_parse() just return 0, I didn't
describe it clearly, my bad.
In ARM64 case, I find that we can not disable ACPI even if we return
error for the handler, for example, we return -EOPNOTSUPP when there is
no PSCI support, we can go on with cpu0 boot only.

Sorry, I don't understand the last sentence, do you mean you agree
with Catalin to return the result of handler()?
