Device trees cannot be used in conjunction with ACPI tables when booting
via UEFI. Currently this concerns only x86 and x86_64 but Phytec is
working on an arm64 board which shall provide an ACPI table. So you
probably want to check CONFIG_GENERATE_ACPI_TABLE instead of the board
type, e.g.

@pytest.mark.notbuildconfigspec('generate_acpi_table')

Best regards
