The NFIT driver and now the CXL ACPI driver have both open-coded ACPI table parsing. Before another instance is added arrange for the core ACPI sub-table parsing to be optionally available to drivers via the CONFIG_ACPI_TABLE_LIB symbol. If no drivers select the symbol then the infrastructure reverts back to being tagged __init via the __init_or_acpilib annotation. For now, only tag the core sub-table routines and data that the CEDT parsing in the cxl_acpi driver would want to reuse, a CEDT parsing helper is added in a later change. Cc: "Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
