I'd also like to know this - including all the ACMs in a distribution seems... hackish.
This is most likely vendor-specific. Older machines that I tried didn't include it (old Thinkpads for example), the newest one that didn't include it that I've seen was of ~2014 vintage (pre-EFI methinks]. Servers should include it (always?), but if they don't then the vendor doesn't care, and then it's doubtul how well it will work anyway.
