ACPICA: Add detection of corrupted/replaced DSDT
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This change adds support to detect a DSDT that has been corrupted
and/or replaced from outside the OS (by firmware). This is
typically catastrophic for the system, but has been seen on
some machines.
