Shall we re-define all the `BLOBLISTT_` tags according to the firmware
handoff
spec v0.9?
According to the latest discussion (in
https://github.com/FirmwareHandoff/firmware_handoff/pull/19)
It is preferred that generic ones to start from `0`, and Arm specific ones
starts
from `0x100`.
In this case, the FDT should be re-defined as `1` and other existing non-arm
ones (e.g. for x86 or Chromium OS) should have their placeholder before
`0xff_f000`,
while generic ones (e.g. for TPM) should be placed somewhere between `0`
and `0x100`.

Raymond
