Does this mean that it will be supported at some point? Looking at the
places where this function is called, I don't really see how this would
ever work on ARM. Which means that we add such macro just to be able to
compile code that would never be used on arm64. I would rather see the
relevant ACPI files only compiled on x86/IA-64 rather than arm64.

So at this point, there wouldn't be anything yet to set acpi_disabled to
1, unless !CONFIG_ACPI.

Do you need anything more to add to this function later? Otherwise, just
call it in setup_arch() directly (maybe dependent on
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI) or just create an equivalent dummy
acpi_table_init() when not configured).

Is there any dummy acpi_boot_table_init() when !CONFIG_ACPI? I couldn't
see one in this patch, so I don't see how this would compile when ACPI
is disabled.
