The above configuration satisfies ACPI 6.1: DSDT -- Physical memory address of the DSDT. If the X_DSDT field contains a non-zero value then this field must be zero. X_DSDT -- Extended physical address of the DSDT. If the DSDT field contains a non-zero value then this field must be zero. Michael told me that "6.1 errata will specify X_DSDT takes preference over DSDT but both can be present legaly", however, here X_DSDT cannot take precedence because it is zero. Based on past experience, I don't expect that Microsoft will ever fix this ACPI bug in Windows Server 2012 R2. I don't even expect that they would share with us a list of ACPI spec versions that should be exempted from RequireDsdtXDsdtExclusion() -- despite the spec clearly requiring DSDT / X_DSDT exclusion --, for bug compatibility. That leaves us with trial and error, to see what works and what doesn't. Unfortunately, I don't have ACPI tables for several ACPI spec versions; I don't think I can experiment with this. If you find a workaround, that would be great, but if we can't, I guess the patch should be reverted. (Note however that the BSOD will remain possible to trigger, with the DSDT, FADT installation order.)

In particular, check the major and minor version numbers in the FADT. If the FADT version is strictly before 5.1, then implement [VARIANT A].
