All EFI firmware call prototypes have been annotated as __efiapi, permitting us to attach attributes regarding the calling convention by overriding __efiapi to an architecture specific value. On 32-bit x86, EFI firmware calls use the plain calling convention where all arguments are passed via the stack, and cleaned up by the caller. Let's add this to the __efiapi definition so we no longer need to cast the function pointers before invoking them.

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.
