So screen_info_guid should probably not be a 'const': you have to cast it away 
anyway, adding artificial linebreaks and uglifying the code. It's also a bad 
practice to cast away const-ness, it hinders move-consts-to-readonly-sections 
efforts.

Otherwise the series looks mostly good to me. Time for new v4.6 merges is short, 
but if Matt acks it I can still take it into tip:efi/core.

Thanks,

	Ingo
