[OpenWrt-Devel] EFI images for x86

I've been running with some version or another of the EFI patches for
about six months now; sysupgrade works fine, and there aren't any
reboot or stability issues that I've seen.
I'd be happy to contribute a review, especially if it helps EFI
support land in master. Is there any desire to move forward with this?
