[PATCH 03/10] x86: Don't use magic strings for EFI loader signature

From: Matt Fleming
Date: Mon Oct 17 2011 - 06:40:38 EST


From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Introduce a symbol, EFI_LOADER_SIGNATURE instead of using the magic
strings, which also helps to reduce the amount of ifdeffery.
