Iirc the main purpose of the change here is to allow booting PVH (guest or Dom0) with Grub2 in the middle. PVH, at least for the time being, is something that gets away without any firmware (and I'm pretty certain this is going to remain that way for Dom0). ACPI tables are being built by the tool stack (guest) or hypervisor (Dom0). Hence there simply isn't any EFI which could be used to propagate such information.
