Yes, this patch series works as bootstrap that we will push all Mt. Jade code in one shot (about 35 commits) to the edk2-platforms for review after this is approved and merged. This series provides Maintainers and Reviewers in the Maintainer.txt who are responsible for giving code review feedback (Reviewed-by tag) if stewards can not review a large patch series.

Thanks,
Nhi
