Hi Patrick,

Rather than just RPi4 support we should add generic qemu support, as
opposed to emulated RPi4 in qemu support as qemu already supports ACPI
on aarch64 for generic SystemReady support with pci/network etc that
way the support is much easier to test in CI.

Also are the ACPI tables you use here compatible with the tianocore
raspberry pi 4 support so users don't end up with weird differences
between firmware?
