[RFC] [PATCH] x86/efi: Adding efi_printks on memory allocationa and pci.reads

[Andre <andre.muller-S0/GAf8tV78@public.gmane.org>]

All other calls to allocate memory seem to make some noise already, with the
exception of two calls (for gop, uga) in the setup_graphics path.

The purpose is to be noisy on worrysome errors immediately.

>     x86/efi: Add better error logging to EFI boot stub

introduces printing false alarms for lots of hardware. Rather than playing
Whack a Mole with non-fatal exit conditions, try the other way round.

This is per Matt Fleming's suggestion:

> is by adding efi_printk() message in certain error paths. Clearly, not
> all error paths need such messages, e.g. the EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER path
> you highlighted above, but it makes sense for memory allocation and PCI
> read failures.

After this, the status check on the setup_efi_pci() function
can go away again.
