Given this isn't in the ACPI spec, I'd make sure you have a reference to the MS
documentation for this. I think it is this one:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/bringup/serial-port-console-redirection-table

Maybe say why this has never mattered - I think because no code actually uses
revision 3.  Prior to this series, arm-virt and loongarch were 2 and
riscv-virt was 4.

Code looks fine so with those additions to the description

Obviously historical, but this does seem like a lot of unnecessary comments
given the clear naming of the input parameters!
