Why [code first?] it's in ACPI 6.5
https://uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_Spec_6_5_Aug29.pdf
Spec reference would be good though. It's 6.5 Tabel 5.37: GICC CPU Interface Flags

bikeshed colour time....
It's capable of being a CPU?
ACPI_MADT_GICC_ONLINE_CAPABLE
GICC already tells us it's a CPU (last C) despite the table in ACPI being labeled
Table 5.37: GICC CPU Interface table
