Make sure you also return AE_OK.
You can only override the DSDT right now.  Later we will allow SSDT and
maybe FADT overrides.  Never FACS, because it contains the global lock

Is it the correct way ?

replace:
	*new_table = NULL;
by:
	*new_table = (acpi_table_header *) AmlCode;  /* or something like
that */


right ?

The only trouble it that it doesn't work.  What I missed ?
