Thanks for laying out the details so patiently for me! I believe I 
understand your concerns better now. In the V2 of the patch series, 
Michael Kelly suggested rethinking how the Kconfig change is carried 
out. Appears natural to try out what your suggesting alongside with the 
Michael's suggestions.

As for your other point, I wouldn't think, too, the system could boot or 
be useful without some coordinates of the environment passed via ACPI || DT.
