17054f492dfd ("efi/x86: Implement mixed mode boot without the handover protocol")
introduced a new entry point for the EFI stub to be booted in mixed mode
on 32-bit firmware.
When entered via efi32_pe_entry, control is first transferred to
startup_32 to setup for the switch to long mode, and then the EFI stub
proper is entered via efi_pe_entry. efi_pe_entry is an MS ABI function,
and the ABI requires 32 bytes of shadow stack space to be allocated by
the caller, as well as the stack being aligned to 8 mod 16 on entry.
Allocate 40 bytes on the stack before switching to 64-bit mode when
calling efi_pe_entry to account for this.
For robustness, explicitly align boot_stack_end to 16 bytes. It is
currently implicitly aligned since .bss is cacheline-size aligned,
head_64.o is the first object file with a .bss section, and the heap and
boot sizes are aligned.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
