Generic Initiators are a new ACPI concept that allows for the
description of proximity domains that contain a device which
performs memory access (such as a network card) but neither
host CPU nor Memory.

This patch has the parsing code and provides the infrastructure
for an architecture to associate these new domains with their
nearest memory processing node.

This depends on the series from Dan at:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/CAPcyv4gBSX58CWH4HZ28w0_cZRzJrhgdEFHa2g8KDqyv8aFqZQ@mail.gmail.com/T/#m1acce3ae8f29f680c0d95fd1e840e703949fbc48 (local)
  
Hi Rafael,

Yes. Cover letter mentions it was rebased on v4 of that series.

AFAICS, so please respin when that one hits the Linus' tree.  
Sure, though that pushes it out another cycle and it's beginning to
get a bit silly (just rebases since April).

I guess it can't be helped given the series hits several trees.  
I've just applied the Dan's series and I can take patch [1/4] from this one,
but for the [2-3/4] I'd like to get some ACKs from the arm64 and x86 people
respectively.
Thanks Rafael!

Absolutely understood on the need for Acks.

For ARM let us try a few more CCs

+CC Will, Lorenzo, Hanjun.

Also Ingo on basis of showing a passing interest in the x86 patch
previously.  Otherwise I think we have the x86 people most like to
comment already cc'd.

https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11174247/ has the full series.

I'd appreciate anyone who has time taking a look at these.  The
actual actions in the architectures are very simple, but I may well
be missing some subtlety.
Thanks!
Thanks,

Jonathan
