Hi,

I do not fully understand why this is under a #ifdef. Is this to support operating systems that might not want to add support for this behavior?

Also, instead of using the terminology fast_path, I think it would be easier to use terminology that describes the mechanism..
It might be easier for other Operating systems to understand something like acpi_os_map_preserved_memory or acpi_os_map_sysmem_opregion_memory.

Thanks,
Erik
