So would I. I flagged this up on the comment since I was not able to follow
the thread on arm64 acpi=force and thought I was missing something.

Either this or Catalin's fix, in actual terms the end result should be
the same on arm64, leaving acpi_disabled will save us some pointless
parsing IMO.

Nit: "acpi" kernel parameter description defines

"force -- enable ACPI if default was off"

which is not what we do on arm64 if we leave ACPI disabled when
acpi=force and ACPI fails to init.

I do not think we should care, if anyone disagrees manifest yourselves.
