Many 8-byte entries have zero at byte 4, so the second 4-byte part is
skipped as a 4-byte padding entry. But not all 8-byte entries have that
property and they get misinterpreted.
A real example:
48 00 00 00 ff 01 00 01
This an 8-byte ACPI_IVRS_TYPE_SPECIAL entry for IOAPIC with ID 255 (bogus).
It is reported as:
ivhd0: Unknown dev entry:0xff
Fortunately, it was completely harmless.
Also, bail out early if we encounter an entry of a variable length type.
We do not have proper handling for those yet.
