I'm not convinced, but I also don't know the history of why boot
services areas are being included here in the first place - Roy?
I.e. if the checks weren't there already, I'd agree that an addition
similar to the other ones would be needed here, but with the x86
side getting relaxed I don't see why you would want to tighten the
ARM side at the same time.
