The error is from the BIOS that contain two FADT tables, one comes from the RSDT and the other comes from the XSDT. The FADT table from the RSDT is uncompleted/wrong.
The FWTS FADT test happens to check the uncompleted/wrong one.

From the ACPI spec, "An ACPI-compatible OS must use the XSDT if present".
So, will send a patch to FWTS to make sure the XSDT checked first if it exists.
