ACPI 4.0 required that if Xfacs is non-zero facs should be zero. Pointed by
either Xfacs or facs, the FACS table should be the same. The major reason using
Xfacs should be just making FACS capable to be located above 4GB. To be
pre-2.0-OS compatible a BIOS is better to allocate the FACS table under 4GB and
pass the single address in both facs & Xfacs.
