MPS tables are not needed for systems that have proper ACPI support.
This is also true for systems that have SFI in place.
So this patch is to exclude X86_MPPARSE when either ACPI or SFI is present.

The changelog does not seem to match the patch. Did you want to
say:
" So this patch allows the configuration (turning off) of
CONFIG_X86_MPPARSE when either ACPI or SFI is present. "
?

Yes, your suggested descriptions more match the change.
I'm sending a new patch for your review. Thanks.
