I am experimenting with the ARM Juno board + UEFI/ACPI + Linux + USB but I have found that Linux fails to initialize the USB host.
The UEFI/ACPI firmware is built using version 3.1 of https://github.com/ARM-software/edk2
The Linux image is built using the leg-20150609.0 tag of https://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/leg-kernel.git
Because I only want ACPI tables and no FDT blob I removed the FdtPlatformDxe driver from ArmJuno.fdf when I build the UEFI/ACPI firmware image.
When I boot Linux from the UEFI shell using the following command line:
FS2:> Image acpi=force initrd=rootfs-aarch64.cpio root=/dev/ram0 rw ignore_loglevel console=ttyAMA0,115200n8 earlyprintk=pl011,0x7ff80000 verbose debug
I am able to boot to the Linux command line but the USB host fails to initialize and the following output is displayed to the console during boot:

If I boot Linux using the same command line as above but replace ‘acpi=force’ with ‘dtb=juno.dtb’ the error does not occur, the USB host is initialized and a USB flash drive is discovered.
Is this a known issue? This error could occur because the ACPI tables do not have the right information or because the kernel is not getting the right information from the tables. Do ya’ll have any ideas on what might be wrong and where I should look in the code to fix this problem?
It looks like there are USB entries in the DSDT for Juno, but I am not seeing any ACPI initialization for USB (I may just be missing it...). I suspect the driver has not been enabled yet, but I'd recommend checking with Graeme (also on this mailing list) who did all the Juno work.
As an aside, you may be able to get rid of the console= on the command line; there is an SPCR table for Juno so in theory it should figure out the console for you.
