I'm afraid this was only a small part of it.

I've also posted the next series here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210729223610.29373-1-james.morse@arm.com/

I will keep posting 'the next part' of the x86 changes once the earlier part is reviewed.
(please help!)

I can't push the latest branch until the ACPI spec is published, but I hope that will
