I was working with Intel on this actually, as part of the Universal
Payload Specification effort, but Arm would not agree to hosting the
spec on the Open Source Firmware Foundation's github, then Intel would
not agree to use what they considered to be an Arm spec :-) I did my
best.

Within U-Boot it is a bloblist. The naming in the spec was chosen so
as not to indicate it had anything to do with U-Boot.
