I worded the commit message in d75b8ac278 to indicate the package
maintainers 'own' how they use the package reviewers role. For my
part, I expected Laszlo and I would effectively treat Ard as a package
maintainer since we trust his work and he has push access already.

I would also prefer to have OVMF support ARM and eventually RISC-V as
well. I don't think Laszlo feels as confident about this though.
