Like the earlier SMBIOS related entry, this should be more specific. At the very
least it needs to similarly mention this is about hvmloader.

Generally looks good to me, but I think it would be nice to add a short explanation why it was done.
Something like:
  - Update SMBIOS to 2.6 to fix UUID endianness mismatch with OVMF and ensure consistent
    Linux guest UUIDs.
Does it make sense?
