Hi Shannon,
I do not really like how this series organized/split and doing refactoring
backwards but that's another story and I'll do suggestions how to make it
better on per patch review later.
But as far as I see this change should only add legacy checksum over
the current rsdp, which is bug fix and makes table spec compliant.
Could you point out why it doesn't work and what exactly breaks?
