From: Jeremy Linton <jeremy.linton@xxxxxxx> The BAD_MADT_GICC_ENTRY check is a little too strict because it rejects MADT entries that don't match the currently known lengths. We should remove this restriction to avoid problems if the table length changes. Future code which might depend on additional fields should be written to validate those fields before using them, rather than trying to globally check known MADT version lengths.
