This section needs to be changed anyway, it comes out of a
misunderstanding I had of the _DSD spec.

It sounds like from the discussions in other threads that ARM64 should
be following x86 and re-using DT bindings here. In which case there is
not need to submit things to UEFI organisation.

What I got a little lost in has there been a formal decision about DT
bindings in _DSD?
