I guess we can call this an "ack" from the ACPI core perspective. But
it's not just ACPI core that this series touches. You should probably
get a renewed ack for the latest series as the message you quoted is 4
months old.

A question that Rafael asked was how you plan to get these merged. You
(or Grant) chose the arm64 maintainers and that's fine by me but it
doesn't mean you don't need acks/reviews for the patches in this series.
