This turns out to break the Avocado test
machine_aarch64_virt.py:Aarch64VirtMachine.test_alpine_virt_tcg_gic_max
(which boots Linux under UEFI) -- UEFI boots and hands off control to
Linux, which never produces any output, presumably because it's
getting confused by the new ACPI table.

I need to investigate further, but for the moment I won't put this
patchset in the target-arm pullreq I'm setting up.
