+ * Arch code can implement the following three template macros, avoiding
+ * reptition for the void/non-void return cases of {__,}efi_call_virt:
+ *
+ *  * arch_efi_call_virt_setup
+ *
+ *    Sets up the environment for the call (e.g. switching page tables,
+ *    allowing kernel-mode use of floating point, if required).
+ *
+ *  * arch_efi_call_virt
+ *
+ *    Performs the call. The last expression in the macro must be the call
+ *    itself, allowing the logic to be shared by the void and non-void
+ *    cases.
+ *
+ *  * arch_efi_call_virt_teardown
+ *
+ *    Restores the usual kernel environment once the call has returned.
