Revert "ACPICA: Interpreter: fix memory leak by using existing buffer"
This reverts commit 32cf1a12cad43358e47dac8014379c2f33dfbed4. The 'exisitng buffer' in this case is the firmware provided table, and we should not modify that in place. This fixes a crash on arm64 with initrd table overrides, in which case the DSDT is not mapped with read/write permissions.
