 * EFI call stub for IA32.
 *
 * This stub allows us to make EFI calls in physical mode with interrupts
 * turned off. Note that this implementation is different from the one in
 * arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_stub_32.S because we're _already_ in physical
 * mode at this point.

 * In gcc calling convention, EBX, ESP, EBP, ESI and EDI are all callee save.
 * So we'd better save all of them at the beginning of this function and restore
 * at the end no matter how many we use, because we can not assure EFI runtime
 * service functions will comply with gcc calling convention, too.
