I was thinking we need the version check already just for the flag.
The spec has a footnote that says
"The description of HW_REDUCED_ACPI provided here applies to ACPI
specifications 5.0 and later"
It doesn't really matter in practice since no RISC-V machines can
boot with ACPI less than a version that support the new RISC-V
tables... But I'd rather we either document that fact, or just do
the check.
Thanks,
