Ah, so this basically gives you the EFI_CALL nesting level? Wouldn't it 
make sense to also increase the nesting level on every application 
invocation?

I don't mean the function, I mean the indent. If you do

   static const char *indent = <const value>;

it should be practically the same as

   const char *indent = <const value>;

no?
