Bug Description
The HEST ACPI test does not recognize type 10/0xa (GHESv2) which results in the following failure:

Type 10 is defined in section 18.3.2.8 of the ACPI spec (as of 6.1).
The HEST test should be amended to recognize and validate type 10.
I'll be sending patches to fwts-devel for this soon
