* Originally, we checked the table signature for "SSDT" or "PSDT" here.
* Next, we added support for OEMx tables, signature "OEM".
* Valid tables were encountered with a null signature, so we've just
* given up on validating the signature, since it seems to be a waste
* of code. The original code was removed (05/2008).
* Validate the incoming table signature.

* 1) Originally, we checked the table signature for "SSDT" or "PSDT".
* 2) We added support for OEMx tables, signature "OEM".
* 3) Valid tables were encountered with a null signature, so we just
* gave up on validating the signature, (05/2008).
* 4) We encountered non-AML tables such as the MADT, which caused
* interpreter errors and kernel faults. So now, we once again allow
* only "SSDT", "OEMx", and now, also a null signature. (05/2011).
