Akashi-san,

efi_memmap_init_late() is currently being called from
arm_enable_runtime_services(), which is an early initcall. If that is
too late for acpi_early_init(), we could perhaps move the call
forward, i.e., sth like

would be reasonable imo. Also, I think it is justifiable to make ACPI
depend on UEFI on arm64, which is notably different from x86.

(I know 'efi_enter_virtual_mode' is not entirely accurate here, given
that we call SetVirtualAddressMap from the UEFI stub on ARM, but it is
still close enough, given that one could argue that EFI is not in
'virtual mode' until the mappings are in place)
