[PATCH v2 01/17] ACPI: GTDT: Account for GTDTv3 size when walking the platform timer descriptors

Since ARMv8.1, the architecture has grown an EL2-private virtual
timer. This has been described in ACPI since ACPI v6.3 and revision
3 of the GTDT table.
An aditional structure was added in ACPICA, though in a rather
bizarre way, and merged in v5.1 as 8f5a14d053100 ("ACPICA: ACPI 6.3:
add GTDT Revision 3 support").
Finally plug the table parsing in GTDT, and correct the parsing of
the platform timer subtables to account for the expanded size of
the base table.
