This series exports the MADT (APIC) ACPI table under the new "etc/acpi/APIC" fw_cfg file. I sought to follow the requirements set forth in [1], the new table is only visible in the patched/patched case. I cross-tested { master, patched } qemu with { master, patched } seabios (the APIC, DSDT and RSDT tables) using guest acpidump and dmesg.
The -acpitable command line option is purposely ignored based on the last paragraph of [2]; the user isn't supposed to pass APIC with that option.
checkpatch.pl complains a little but (as last time) it's a false alarm.
The series is bisectable.
