This patch results in boot failures of 32-bit images. Reverting it fixes the problem.
On the failing boot tests, I see messages such as
ACPI: \_SB_.GSIA: Enabled at IRQ 117440528 ERROR: Unable to locate IOAPIC for GSI 117440528 ahci 0000:00:1f.2: PCI INT A: failed to register GSI
ACPI: \_SB_.GSIG: Enabled at IRQ 117440534 ERROR: Unable to locate IOAPIC for GSI 117440534 8139cp 0000:00:02.0: PCI INT A: failed to register GSI
Given that 117440534 == 0x7000016, that looks quite suspicious. Indeed, after reverting this patch, the messages are different.
ACPI: \_SB_.GSIA: Enabled at IRQ 16 ahci 0000:00:1f.2: AHCI 0001.0000 32 slots 6 ports 1.5 Gbps 0x3f impl SATA mode
