Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] [MdePkg/Protocols]: New interface, EFI encodings to PCI Plat protocol

["Ni, Ray" <ray.ni@intel.com>]

Some unclear parts in the document:
1. Document says title begins with "staging/branch". The "branch" means the "branch" word itself
     or should be replaced with a concrete branch name? I prefer "branch" word. Reasons in previous mail.
    NOTE: this affects the individual patch owner.
2. Who owns the staging/master branch sync to edk2/master? Document says the staging/branch is
     based on staging/master but I guess usually staging patch owner creates staging/branch based on edk2/master.

Thanks,
Ray
