With

#define acpi_disabled true

in xen/acpi.h I don't see why we even have that inline stub. When it's dropped
and the declaration left in place without #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI around it, the
compiler will DCE the code (much like we arrange for in many other places). No
deviation needed then.

If such a deviation was to be added, it would need disambiguating. A function
of the given name could appear in x86 as well. That wouldn't be covered by the
Eclair config then, but it would be covered by the text here.

I didn't look at this, but I would very much hope that something similar could
be done there as well.
