So, the fix looks good, but clearly this is one of those lock-step updates...
It does not however seem like the required acpica-tools update breaks any of the existing public builds, so I guess it's just time for another bump.
Acpica-tools 20160527 is now the one to use.
I'm testing with this commit right now:
https://github.com/acpica/acpica/commit/d0126a368a1f712d1d4bf723cd9be663aba8...
A quick busybox build on FVP and Juno seems to confirm that it's fine with the existing code I use.
Are these tools always built from source? Any particular reason?
Yes, because I need specific versions depending on what version of the code I'm building.
Sometimes, old versions won't build newer code and newer versions won't build older code. And I can't rely on the user installing the correct version: it's gone wrong for me several times and I've had a glut of support requests. I've had none since I started building from source.
Both Debian and Fedora have been updated to this version. I usually update the packages about a week after the upstream release (they sometimes have to patch them so I wait for the source to settle a bit). I keep the Linaro package tree updated, too, so that whenever Jenkins gets fixed [0], the package can be rebuilt from there, as well [1].

Thanks, pushed!
Yes, this is why I think I made a mistake choosing .asl. These lock-step upgrades are a pain and avoided using the aslc macros.

MADT will now compile with v6.1 fields so we need to bump the FADT to indicate v6.1 compatability otherwise kernel will fail to parse MADT correctly and issue the error "No valid GICC entries exist".
