      Modern BIOS systems normally implement the Advanced Configuration
      and Power Interface (ACPI), and define various tables that describe
      the interface between an ACPI-compliant operating system and the
      firmware.  In some cases, the tables provided by default only work
      well with certain operating systems, and it may be necessary to
      replace some of them.
 
      Normally, this command will replace the Root System Description
      Pointer (RSDP) in the Extended BIOS Data Area to point to the new
      tables.  If the '--no-ebda' option is used, the new tables will be
      known only to GRUB, but may be used by GRUB's EFI emulation.
 
      Note: The command is not allowed when lockdown is enforced (⇒
      Lockdown).  Otherwise an attacker can instruct the GRUB to load
      an SSDT table to overwrite the kernel lockdown configuration and
      later load and execute unsigned code.
