OK, Mayuri,

You brought an interesting point. And this point is to be not only
investigated by you, rather also by me and, perhaps, Coreboot community.

Since here, in Bayern/Deutschland is Holiday Day, I went to buy a beer in
Munchen HBf, and while walking there I was thinking about your use case.
Thinking deeper.

I know that you are using some INTEL CPU/SoC (do not remember which one, if
you said one). But, while recapping how BIOS looks like, I did notice that
SEC and PEI phases have nothing to do with UEFI EDK2. EDK 2 comes to play
in DXE phase, where EDK2 actually takes place/overtakes control...

It says to me one major thing I did not notice while ago: that ARM SoCs are
also eligible to run on UEFI compliant OSes, namely WIN 8.1+ (including WIN
10 and WIN 10 Athens/RT WIN 10). Which makes very interesting IOT case
namely for ARM, allowing it also to compete in WIN space.

Interestingly enough, this idea did not come to my mind till few hours
ago... I guess, Vincent (Zimmer) already thought about that. ;-)

Martin (Roth) just replied, to solve this immediate mystery. probably for
the beginning only for INTEL SoCs, but, I really hope, ARM will also
integrate in this concept seamlessly! :-)
