[edk2-devel] [PATCH 1/1] Platform/RaspberryPi: Setup option for disabling Fast Boot

Hi Sunny,

Functionaly, I see no issues with this patch, and it's indeed a good 
solution to the problem of trying to satisfy everyone while fixing the 
issues we are seeing.

There are however a few minor typos and whitespace issues, that I'm 
detailing below. So could you please send a v2 to address these?

Personally, I would move the Boot Policy section between "System Table 
Selection" and "ACPI Fan Control" if we try to keep the advanced 
settings in the order we think they will be most used.

Missing a space after "the boot time.". It should be "the boot time. ", 
else the help text will display as "(...) the boot time.When Full 
Discovery (...)"

Why are you adding the carriage return? Was there an issue with the 
display of this prompt?
