Subject: acpi: Disable ACPI table override if the kernel is locked down
Patch-mainline: v5.4-rc1
Git-commit: 6ea0e815fc5e18597724169caa6e4d46dd8e693d
References: jsc#SLE-9870

>From the kernel documentation (initrd_table_override.txt):

  If the ACPI_INITRD_TABLE_OVERRIDE compile option is true, it is possible
  to override nearly any ACPI table provided by the BIOS with an
  instrumented, modified one.

When lockdown is enabled, the kernel should disallow any unauthenticated
changes to kernel space.  ACPI tables contain code invoked by the kernel,
so do not allow ACPI tables to be overridden if the kernel is locked down.
