[PATCH 0/1] Fix segfault when trying to scan memory for RSDP

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

When scanning for RSDP we hit a segfault on non-Intel/AMD machines because
this code tries to find the root ACPI pointer in memory that shouldn't be
scanned.  Ensure we only scan on Intel + AMD architectures.

Colin Ian King (1):
  lib: fwts_acpi_find_rsdp_bios should only scan for RSDP on Intel/AMD
