Allocate memory for ACPI tables inside the efi_loader and write out the tables similar to SMBIOS tables. When ACPI is enabled and wasn't installed in other places, install the ACPI table in EFI. Since EFI is necessary to pass the ACPI table location when FDT isn't used, there's no need to install it separately.
When CONFIG_BLOBLIST_TABLES is set the tables will be stored in a bloblist. The tables are still passed to the OS using EFI.
This allows non x86 platforms to boot using ACPI only in case the EFI loader is being used.
TEST: Booted QEMU SBSA (no QFW) using EFI and ACPI only.

Could you, please, describe how QEMU SBSA is passing the ACPI table to U-Boot and where you convert this to a bloblist. I could not find this in patches 1-13.
I doesn't. All ACPI tables are generated within U-Boot.
Please, provide a test that we can run on our CI.
How would such a test look like?
Similar to the existing QEMU ones found in .gitlab-ci.yml and .azure-pipelines.yml
Patch v5 enables QEMU SBSA ref on azure CI.
