After some further thinking, I wish to withdraw from my comment above.
The spec doesn't really say how this flag should be used, but provides the "system"
With a mean to disable hpb.

So I tend to agree with your interpretation, that this flag should be configured by the OEMs,
Along with all other hpb configurables, should they choose to enable it.

As it is of a persistent nature, we might even consider in the future,
to add some logic that will allow to use this flag to disable hpb.

Thanks,
Avri
