This patch implements and acpi_rsdp_get() function that searches for the
RSDP in memory (up to the BIOS) rather than calculating its start
address. Recent changes seem to have moved the RSDP to another location
in memory so that I received 'BAD RSPD signature' messages.
I have also fixed some other possible issues related to return codes and
alignment of ACPI entries.
