Subject: [PATCH v2] ACPI / tables: table override from built-in initrd

In some scenario, we need to build initrd with kernel in a single image.
This can simplify system deployment process by downloading the whole system
once, such as in IC verification.

This patch adds support to override ACPI tables from built-in initrd.

 For a full list of ACPI tables that can be upgraded/installed, take a look
 at the char *table_sigs[MAX_ACPI_SIGNATURE]; definition in
