I *really* don't like this. All other ACPI tables are set up in a
forward compatible way, where an existing definition in code is
guaranteed to comply with later versions of the spec, and can always
claim to be the newest revision. This is the reason why
xxx_TABLE_REVISION macros exist in the first place.

So I suppose that means that the IORT was modified in a non-forward
compatible fashion? Does that mean that newer firmware has to stick
with the old revision in order to remain able to boot older OS
versions?
