I know.
This is the reason why I wanted to discuss this patch on the list. I hate the
fact that I broke something unintentionally (who would think that kzalloc
wouldn't work). I'm trying to restore the functionality and I don't like
what I see with the early_memxxx family of functions.
They all require a fixed size memory allocation from the system memory. Not a
general purpose early_kzalloc function for instance.

I'll use acpi_gbl_permanent_mmap.
