The BBR specification requires (or conditionally requires) a set of ACPI tables for a proper working system. This commit updates: - the list of ACPI tables to reflect the contents of BBR version 2.0 (see https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0044/g). - the list of ACPI tables in acpi_object_usage. This last update ensures that both files remain coherent.
