Hi,
Several future developments that this will enable:
- make it easier to use alternative firmware:
any firmware can just load the ACPI tables from QEMU.
case in point OVMF.
UEFI obviously can create ACPI tables already so I don't think this is a
valid advantage.
Yea, but it

reason why exposing this information via a common interface (fw_cfg)
would be a good idea.
Huh? As far I know we generate device trees in qemu instead of
expecting pseries firmware compile them from fw_cfg information.
