Mantis is the UEFI Forum Specification Working group bug tracker. The UEFI 
Forums organizational documents require membership to view things work group, 
only the finished specs are public. There is a history of companies 
implementing spec work group  items and building interfaces that end up not 
being compatible with the spec, but close enough that you can't spot them in 
the wild. I think this was a big problem in wireless specifications, but it is 
generally the same group of lawyers from the member companies that setup the 
bylaws of the industry trade groups. 

So I agree the mantis reference in the commit message is confusing...
