+Linux supports two methods of overriding the BIOS DSDT:
+
+CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT builds the image into the kernel.
+
+CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD adds the image to the initrd.
+
+When to use these methods is described in detail on the
+Linux/ACPI home page:
+http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/overridingDSDT.php
+
+Note that if both options are used, the DSDT supplied
+by the INITRD method takes precedence.
+
+Documentation/initramfs-add-dsdt.sh is provided for convenience
+for use with the CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD method.
