Hi Simon, I'll repeat what I've said before; handoff for M1 is deliberately 100% compatible with handoff to the Linux kernel such that it is possible to bypass U-Boot and directly boot a Linux kernel. This is a feature the Asahi Linux developers depend on. If you want us to make changes here, you need to convince the Linux kernel developers to adjust Documentation/arch/arm64/bootig.rst to allow for the firmware handoff convention.
