That's what I meant here and what I have added to this patch with this
update.

No, this helped early boot debugging of kernel and ACPI issues since
CEDT entries are important for this. For acpitools you need the
machine to be up already. If it is not part of the kernel log there
would be a 2nd step needed to get this information from. The patch
also lifts CEDT logging to the same level as for SRAT.

I hope that makes sense?

Thanks,
