+When booting using ACPI tables, the /chosen node in DT will still be parsed +to extract the kernel command line and initrd path. No other section of the +DT will be used.
Is this still true?
No, we can booting the ACPI system in EFI stub without dtb. Catalin also pointed out this issue, I will remove this paragraph.
The paragraph is still correct, the /chosen node is always present even if nothing else is.
