+Subject: [17/29] acpi: Disable ACPI table override if the kernel is locked
+ down
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/commit?id=5976d26de05569951641ebeb95f7240993b66063
+
+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 securelevel is set, 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.
