 - [PULL 2/2] x86: acpi: use offset instead of pointer when using  
build_header()
    * regression: no (reported on 5.1)
    * severity: qemu assert on guest boot
        could happen when configuration pushes ACPI tables blob over current 
limit (virt/arm had similar fix)
         (frankly speaking, why it's happening in reporter's case is still not 
clear)
      I was hoping it would get into rc4, but it missed that train,
      it probably would be fine to postpone patch to 6.1 at this point
