I've also asked for some kind of official spec, as I would assume it
should be in:

https://uefi.org/acpi

With the rest of tables not in the spec itself, but there's none.

I could add a link to the Linux header, but that's suboptimal IMO.

Are you fine with this as-is, or would you like me to elaborate about
the lack of an official spec in the commit description?

Thanks, Roger.
