[PATCH] efi: Resolve some shadow warnings

[Jeff Kirsher]

From: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@xxxxxxxxx>

It is a really bad idea to declare variables or parameters that
have the same name as common types. It is valid C, but it gets
surprising if a macro expansion attempts to declare an inner
local with that type. Change the local names to eliminate the
hazard.

Change s16 => ps16, s8 => ps8.
