The Acpixx.h are not like Pcixx.h. There are duplications among them (using
different structure/macro prefix with version embedded).
I suggest we either update all of them, or we refactor the Acpixx.h to remove
the duplications through "typedef" or "define".
The easier way for this small change can be just to update all duplicated code.
Thanks,
Ray

Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] MdePkg/Acpi64: Update Error Severity type for
Generic Error Status Block
Hello Liming,
My take is that the consumers of the ACPI header file will always use the
latest version.
Is my understanding correct? Or should I update all the header files relating
to the affected versions (5.1~6.4) of the ACPI spec?
Best Regards,
Hao Wu
