SubjectRe: [PATCH] - Mapping ACPI tables as CACHED

Nope, that is a losing bet...

The early mappings are temporary, but they are cached,
for they use __pgprot(__PAGE_KERNEL_IO), which is
(__PAGE_KERNEL | _PAGE_IOMAP)

rather than __pgprot(__PAGE_KERNEL_IO_NOCACHE) or its variants.

We just need to update the permanent mappings to match.
