Buglink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/chelmsford/+bug/1916043

SRU Justification:

[Impact]
* ACPI definitions are updated for PKA (public key accelerator) HW on Bluefield platforms (by Mellnox/Nvidia).
* ACPI update requires PKA driver update, else kernel traces will be seen on startup.
* PKA driver won't be loaded and PKA HW will be inaccessible.

[Fix]
* "pka: Use memory addresses defined in ACPI table"

[Testcase]
* On bluefield system startup check if PKA driver is loaded without any errors. Ex:#dmesg | grep -i pka
