we typically do not version ACPI table changes (there might be exceptions
but it should be a justified one).
ACPI tables are considered to be a part of firmware (even though they are
generated by QEMU) so on QEMU upgrade user gets a new firmware along with
new ACPI tables.
Hmm... I would have expected as a QEMU user that upgrading QEMU may update
my firmware exposed table (Such as ACPI),
but only if I don't specify I wish to run on a specific machine-type. In
that case, I would've expect to be exposed with exact same firmware
information.
I understood that this was one of the main reasons why ACPI/SMBIOS
generation was moved from SeaBIOS to QEMU.
If you think this isn't the case, I can just remove this flag (Makes code
simpler). What do you prefer?
Thanks for the review,

I'm inclined to agree, but no biggie if Igor disagrees let's go along
with his opinion.
