Michael tried document it (commit 30c63d4fbd69)
so that binary blobs would not be required (trusted).

Problem is usually in blobs being un-review-able and
unresolvable merge conflicts, that's why Michael
updates tables manually for all changes in pull req.

But in this case it touches only ARM tables and it's
the first change to go in, so it could just work out.
