That worked out much better :)
I see these changes in e820 table, the first part is probably unrelated:
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009bbff] usable
...
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000ba294fff] usable

modified: [mem 0x00000000ba27c000-0x00000000ba2947fc] ACPI data
modified: [mem 0x00000000ba2947fd-0x00000000ba294fff] usable
And the ACPI data section where the modified tables are placed
seem to get correctly inserted at:
0x00000000ba27c000-0x00000000ba2947fc
-> 0x187FC == 100,348 bytes
DSDT and FACP (better known as FADT) I passed have a size
of (see dmesg parts below):
0x18709 + 0xF4 bytes = 100,349 bytes.
Ah wait the 0xba2947fc is inclusive, so it should exactly fit.
I then see:
DSDT ACPI table found in initrd [0x378f5208-0x3790d910]
FACP ACPI table found in initrd [0x3790d9a0-0x3790da93]

Later I see my debug string added to the DSDT when the
PCI Routing Table (_PRT) is processed:
[ 9.505419] [ACPI Debug] String [0x0A] "XXXXXXXXXX"
And taking the FADT from /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/FACP:
my:
PM Profile : 04 [Enterprise Server]
changed (as expected) to:
PM Profile : 02 [Mobile]

I also went through the override related patches and from
what I can judge (certainly not the early memory, flat 32 bit memory you call
it?
specific parts), they look fine.
Nice work!
