It sounds like from the discussions in other threads that ARM64 should
be following x86 and re-using DT bindings here. In which case there is
not need to submit things to UEFI organisation.

What I got a little lost in has there been a formal decision about DT
bindings in _DSD?

I think this is a discussion that still needs to happen: either we should
recommend everyone to use _DSD in favor of the alternatives, or we
should prohibit the use of _DSD. I have heard arguments both ways, but
hopefully we can find an easy answer.

This discussion is just not going to happen until people at @redhat.com
and people who have currently announced/released hardware are actually
willing to start talking about it.

Id love to be able to put my foot down and ban the use of _DSD for
servers but I suspect that will not happen.
