[PATCH v4 06/18] ARM64 / ACPI: Introduce early_param for "acpi"

From: Hanjun Guo <hidden>
Date: 2014-09-12 14:04:55
Also in: linux-acpi, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

From: Al Stone <redacted>

Introduce one early parameters "off" for "acpi" to disable ACPI on
ARM64.

This ensures the kernel uses the DT on a platform that provides both
ACPI tables and DT.
