[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC] acpi: don't build acpi tables for xen hvm guests



Xen's toolstack is in charge of building ACPI tables. Skip acpi table
building if running on Xen.

This issue is discovered due to direct kernel boot on Xen doesn't boot
anymore, because the new ACPI tables cause the guest to exceed its
memory allocation limit.
