Sadly, in arch/x86/platform/uv/bios_uv.c, uv_bios_call() has a reference
to the macro efi_call_virt_pointer() which wouldn't be able to see the
definition in runtime-wrappers.c

Otherwise, we could've moved efi_call_virt_pointer() and
__efi_call_virt_pointer in runtime-wrappers.c and things would not have
been as nasty.

But no, I don't think we can do that without breaking some x86 build :( .

Thanks,
