hi Alex:
                I saw the patch from Feng Tang.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=134380363332502&w=2
which is trying to replace acpi_get_table_with_size() with
acpi_get_table(). Since the size can be get
via struct acpi_table_header->length, acpi_get_table_with_size() is
redundant and it will be removed.
