I just noticed this. If the hypervisor spec is still in draft, then why
is it being referenced by EBBR? Shouldn't that spec be made final first,
or at least commonly deployed?

This sounds like it should be more tightly written. How about:
On platforms with the hypervisor extension enabled UEFI code should be
executed in HS mode to allow installation of a hypervisor or a
virtualization aware operating system.
Still with the hypervisor extension in draft I wonder if it would be
better to leave these bits out for now.

I don't think this is valid for a copyright message. In fact, the Arm
line above it is also wrong. It should be specific to the copyright
owner without the "or its affiliates". Is it okay by you if Idrop that
last bit.
That's the copyright line we got from Western Digital lawyer because
Western Digital has many subsidiaries (as a result of acquisitions)
In fact, our group was part of HGST until recently. We have the same
copyright in other open source projects (Kernel, OpenSBI, U-Boot)
Good enough for me. I'm leaving it as is.
I've pushed my edited copy out to a temporary branch. You can see it here:
