Linus reported that:
After commit a103f46633 the kernel stopped compiling for
several ARM32 platforms that I am building with a bare metal
compiler. Bare metal compilers (arm-none-eabi-) don't
define __linux__.
This is because the header <acpi/platform/acenv.h> is now
in the include path for <linux/irq.h>:
CC arch/arm/kernel/irq.o
CC kernel/sysctl.o
CC crypto/api.o
In file included from ../include/acpi/acpi.h:22,
from ../include/linux/fw_table.h:29,
from ../include/linux/acpi.h:18,
from ../include/linux/irqchip.h:14,
from ../arch/arm/kernel/irq.c:25:
../include/acpi/platform/acenv.h:218:2: error: #error Unknown target environment
218 | #error Unknown target environment
| ^~~~~
The issue is caused by the introducing of splitting out the ACPI code to
support the new generic fw_table code.
Rafael suggested [1] moving the fw_table.h include in linux/acpi.h to below
the linux/mutex.h. Remove the two includes in fw_table.h. Replace
linux/fw_table.h include in fw_table.c with linux/acpi.h.

Stephen reports that the ACPI helper library rework,
CONFIG_FIRMWARE_TABLE, introduces a new compiler warning:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: acpi_parse_entries_array: EXPORT_SYMBOL used
for init symbol. Remove __init or EXPORT_SYMBOL.
Delete this export as it turns out it is unneeded, and future work wraps
this in another exported helper. Note that in general
EXPORT_SYMBOL_ACPI_LIB() is needed for exporting symbols that are marked
__init_or_acpilib, but in this case no export is required.

Some of the routines in ACPI driver/acpi/tables.c can be shared with
parsing CDAT. CDAT is a device-provided data structure that is formatted
similar to a platform provided ACPI table. CDAT is used by CXL and can
exist on platforms that do not use ACPI. Split out the common routine
from ACPI to accommodate platforms that do not support ACPI and move that
to /lib. The common routines can be built outside of ACPI if
FIRMWARE_TABLES is selected.
