Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/2] x86/boot: early ACPI MADT processing cleanup

Logic in early_acpi_process_madt() & acpi_process_madt() is really hard to
follow now. Clean them up.

Done basic boot test on my x86-64 PC.

CCed linux-acpi@...r.kernel.org

  x86/acpi: Improve code readablity of early madt processing
  x86/acpi: Cleanup acpi_process_madt()
