Apologies for the late bikeshedding, but the discussion on this topic
previsously was lively enough that I thought I'd let it die down a bit
before seeing if I had anything to add.
That, and I just realised something:
One alternative to this added DT entry is that we could treat the
absence of a registered UEFI configuration table as the indication
that no HW description was provided from firmware, since the stub does
not call InstallConfigurationTable() on the DT it generates. This does
move the ability to detect to after efi_init(), but this should be
fine for ACPI-purposes.
If that is deemed undesirable, I would still prefer Catalin's
suggested name ("linux,bare-dtb"), which describes the state rather
than the route we took to get there.
