'non standard' here is probably a little jarring to the casual reader. You're referring to
the UEFI spec's "N.2.3 Non-standard Section Body", which refers to any section type
published somewhere other than the UEFI spec.

These still have to have a GUID to identify them, so they still have the same section
header format.

Could you give an example of where this would be useful? You're adding an API with no
caller to justify its existence.


GUIDs should only belong to one driver.

I don't think we should call drivers for something described as a fatal error. (which is
the case with what you have here)

Presumably for any vendor-specific stuff?


Thanks,

James
