Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v1] libxl: Make an ACPI support build for ARM64 configurable.

This would increase the system configurability and would let one
shrink a system to a minimal footprint with required functionality
only. Such possibility is very useful in embedded applications.

Unfortunately I don't know the exact space impact of this particular
feature 'cause I can't build it. From other hand I do not need it in
my system. So I would like to have a way to drop not needed
functionality easily.
BTW, excessive functionality reduction is also a way to get more
stable and predictable system.

Sincerely,
Andrii Anisov.
