Subject: [PATCH part3 0/5] acpi, acpica: Initialize acpi_gbl_root_table_list earlier and override it later.

In order to prevent bootmem allocator (memblock) from allocating hotpluggable
memory for the kernel, we need to obtain SRAT earlier.

In part1 patch-set, we have split acpi_gbl_root_table_list initialization into
two steps: install and override.

This patch-set will do install step earlier. This will help us to find SRAT provided
by firmware earlier in later patches.

The current kernel looks like this:

setup_arch()
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* Find all tables specified by users in initrd,
| and store them in acpi_tables_addr array. */
|......
|->acpi_boot_table_init() /* Find all tables in firmware and install them
into acpi_gbl_root_table_list. Check acpi_tables_addr,
if any table needs to be overrided, override it. */

After this patch-set, the kernel will look like this:

setup_arch()
|->early_acpi_boot_table_init() /* Find all tables in firmware and install them
| into acpi_gbl_root_table_list. No override. */
|
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* Find all tables specified by users in initrd,
| and store them in acpi_tables_addr array. */
|......
|->acpi_boot_table_init() /* Check acpi_tables_addr, if any table needs to
be overrided, override it. */

Subject: [PATCH part3 5/5] x86, acpi: Initialize acpi golbal root table list earlier.

As the previous patches split the acpi_gbl_root_table_list initialization
procedure into two steps: install and override, this patch does the "install"
steps earlier, right after memblock is ready.

In this way, we are able to find SRAT in firmware earlier. And then, we can
prevent memblock from allocating hotpluggable memory for the kernel.

The previous patches introduces two new functions:
acpi_initialize_tables_firmware() and acpi_initialize_tables_override(),
which work just the same as acpi_initialize_tables() if they are called
in sequence.

In order to split acpi_table_init() on acpi side, call these two functions
in acpi_table_init().

Since acpi_table_init() is also used in ia64, we keep it works as before.

Subject: [PATCH part3 3/5] x86, acpi: Rename check_multiple_madt() and make it global.

Since we split acpi_table_init() into two steps, and want to do
the two steps separately, we need to do check_multiple_madt() after
acpi_table_init_override().

But we also have to keep acpi_table_init() as before because it
is also used in ia64, we have to do check_multiple_madt() directly
in acpi_boot_table_init() in x86.

This patch make check_multiple_madt() global, and rename it to
acpi_check_multiple_madt() because all interfaces provided by
drivers/acpi/tables.c begins with "acpi_".
