Without looking at the callers, the usage of this function is very 
unclear. For instance what does mean the offset in this case?
Furthermore, you are assuming that all the tables before the given index 
have all been created and will never be modified. So all the code flow 
to generate the ACPI tables is inflexible.
I'm fine for now with this kind of assumption, but this need to be spell 
out in the header.
