Just like the EFI reservations, ACPI tables can be stamped over

recover from such corruption.
It looks like our x86 friends have been there before, and have
recently added some infratructure that does what we need since
1a1c130ab757 ("ACPI: tables: x86: Reserve memory occupied by ACPI
tables"), though it appears to exist for different reasons.
Let's call into acpi_reserve_initial_tables() early so that
our tables are protected from the big bad kexec.Feel free to add (and/or): Tested-by: Moritz Fischer <mdf@kernel.org> Reported-by: Moritz Fischer <mdf@kernel.org>
