Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot: Move detecting acpi=off in cmdline to get_rsdp_addr()

If "acpi=off" specified in cmdline, the whole functions of acpi.c
should not work, there is no need to ealy parse RSDP, so detect
"acpi=off" in the very first place.

Also replace magic number with macro.

This place looks wrong because we have a get_acpi_rsdp() call before
that which overrides acpi=off practically.

Also, if you move it to get_rsdp_addr(), add a static variable recording
the previous result of the cmdline parsing because I don't want it
parsing cmdline each time it is called.

Thx.

Oh thanks.
In my old version PATCH, it was in count_immovable_mem_regions() which
is the entry function of acpi.c. Then in last version, I splite acpi.c
so that the first entry is get_rsdp_addr(), that's why I want to move
the detecting here.
