From: Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@xxxxxxxxxx> ACPICA commit f0c4a06f1dfc4886d4e0c2aa30bc57b10c5a8c53 Like many tables, this is a header followed by multiple subtables of varying self-identifying types, and ACPICA does not normally add a field for the subtables, instead relying on pointer arithmetic past the end of the first header struct, since indexing a flexible array member is meaningless for variable-length entries. If we really wanted a field for this, we could use a u8 flexible array member, but it contradicts the current style. Using void *, however, is categorically wrong, as ACPI tables never contain native C-language pointers.
