I did a small fix to 
ibft-update-ibft-handling-for-v103-of-the-spec.patch to get it to 
compile. It looks like that patch has a "Reviewed-by: Mike Christie 
<michaelc at cs.wisc.edu>". Feel free to change that to a Signed-off-by: 
Mike Christie <michaelc at cs.wisc.edu> if needed.

I did not do any changes to 
ibft-for-uefi-machines-actually-do-scan-acpi-for-ibft.patch.

I tested both patches.
