If I'm not allowed to touch that header, it looks like I can include
<linux/stddef.h> (rather than my host's <stddef.h>) to get a
definition of `offsetof` thats implemented in terms of
`__builtin_offsetof`.  I should be able to use that to replace uses of
ACPI_OFFSET.  Are any of these off limits?

$ grep -rn ACPI_OFFSET
arch/arm64/include/asm/acpi.h:34:#define ACPI_MADT_GICC_MIN_LENGTH
ACPI_OFFSET(  \
arch/arm64/include/asm/acpi.h:41:#define ACPI_MADT_GICC_SPE
(ACPI_OFFSET(struct acpi_madt_generic_interrupt, \
include/acpi/actbl.h:376:#define ACPI_FADT_OFFSET(f)             (u16)
