Not sure I understand this commit message.
As I see it, this commit includes two changes:
1. Mark the variables only used during init with __initdata
2. Move the variables into a structure
If I get that right, can you argue for both changes?
What about:
"The ACPI code requires to use global variables in order to collect
information from the tables.
To make clear those variables are ACPI specific, gather all of them in a
single structure.
Furthermore, even if some of the variables are not marked with
__initdata, they are all only used during the initialization. Therefore,
the new variable, which hold the structure, can be marked __initdata."
