"condition"?

Also, please explain shortly what all those abbreviations mean: think
of a person reading your commit message who doesn't have any clue from
ACPI.

This is just silly: the function returns void and has a single parameter
which is an *output* parameter?!

Why isn't the signature

static acpi_physical_address *efi_get_rsdp_addr(void)

instead?

You're setting it below already, why here too?

No ugly line breaks with open braces trailing like that, pls - just let
it stick out.

You need to say here what really happens here:

                debug_putstr("Error getting RSDP address: EFI system table 
located above 4GB.\n");

The same below.

Put the void *config_tables declaration here.

Above you have CONFIG_X86_64, here CONFIG_64BIT. Please use one only.

Also, use IS_ENABLED() instead.

That comment is the opposite of what the code does. Also, why is that
comment needed at all? If anything, it should say *why* ACPI_TABLE_GUID
is preferred and then the fallback to ACPI_20_TABLE_GUID is done - not
*what* it does. That's easily visible in the code.

Thx.
