The commend and code disagree. The code says 5.1 or newer, while the comment say
_only_ 5.1. One or the other needs to change.
I don't think the comment and code disagree, it says "we only deal with
ACPI 5.1 _or_ higher revision".

But since you mention it and following my other thread with Grant, I
think at least for now we should make this check 5.1 only.
