Definitely an ambiguity / conflict, but not sure it is a bug when you
look at from the perspective of how would an EFI runtime service use
ECAM/MMCONFIG space?

Would it be enough to add this clarification in "EFI 2.9 Table 7-6
Memory Type Usage after ExitBootServices()"?

s/This memory is not used by the OS./This memory is not used by the OS,
unless ACPI declares it for another puporse./
