Bug Description
ARM will be deprecating the /dev/mem interface, which makes it impossible to read ACPI tables using this interface. We should read the tables from /sys/firmware/
For now, the best route is:
if /dev/mem available: read tables using this interface
else read via /sys/firmware/
/sys/firmware/
