This is from the use of the ACPI_OFFSET in
arch/arm64/include/asm/acpi.h. Replace its use with offsetof from
include/linux/stddef.h which should implement the same logic using
__builtin_offsetof, so that UBSAN wont warn.

I looked at the longer thread about this, given that it appears to be a false positive with respect to the macro, I tend to prefer Ard's suggestion of just changing the offset value (1 should be sufficient rather than 0) to avoid this kind of problem in the future.

But either way, this change looks fine too.
