If ACPI is disabled then loading the acpi_dbg module will result in the

This is because acpi_debugger.lock has not been initialized as
acpi_debugger_init() is not called when ACPI is disabled.  Fail module
loading to avoid this and any subsequent problems that might arise by
trying to debug AML when ACPI is disabled.

My review still valid, thanks!
