hmm, odd that this patch would trigger it..

maybe adding 'ccflags-y += -DDEBUG=1' in efi_loader/Makefile (and then
possibly an #undef DEBUG at top of efi_console.c to make the debug
spam not *too* much) would help track it down?

I probably need to rebase my stack of patches again.  I've been busy
on other things and haven't had time for u-boot for last couple
weeks..
