In 2.6.12-rc4, I added acpi=off to the kernel command line and it panic-ed in acpi_get_firmware_table, called from the IPMI driver.

The attached patch fixes the problem, but it still spits out ugly "ACPI-0166: *** Error: Invalid address flags 8" errors. So I doubt the patch is right, but maybe it points to something else.

Is it legal to call acpi_get_firmware_table if acpi is off? If not, how can I tell that acpi is off?
Please check 'acpi_disabled' variable.
acpi_disabled is not available on ia64. It doesn't seem to be a standard interface. So that's not an option.
