Let me say something about this error messages.  Someone may face difficulties to reproduce it.
Currently, this message cannot be seen in any kernel build.
This is because this patch series doesn't include a fix to remove <acpi/acpi.h> inclusion from linux/sfi_acpi.h.
To achieve this, I have offered 2 options:
1. Redefining ACPICA table stuff for CONFIG_ACPI=n environment, or
2. Implementing stubs for all ACPICA functions/globals/macros and introducing <linux/acpica.h> (where acpi/acpi.h is included) as a top level header.
3. Other solutions...

If we choose solution 1, then this issue is exposed by a build test where CONFIG_ACPI=n and CONFIG_SFI=y.
Since we haven't decided what to do for the table structures and it is really not a good approach to achieve the build safety for mmconfig-share.c by relying on link-stage optimization rather than compile-stage referencing.  IMO, we need to sort it out, thus I make it a part of this patchset.

Well, if we choose solution 2, this patch can only help to reduce the size of the kernel image.

Thanks and best regards
