No, the config I attached has been edited because when I use
efi-x86_defconfig I get a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit objects:

/home/jer/airfi/airfi-base/apollo/output/host/usr/bin/x86_64-buildroot-linux-gnu-ld.bfd:
Relocatable linking with relocations from format elf32-i386
(board/efi/efi-x86/efi.o) to format elf64-x86-64
(board/efi/efi-x86/built-in.o) is not supported
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:359: board/efi/efi-x86/built-in.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1234: board/efi/efi-x86] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

So I needed to adapt it for a 64-bit target by enabling CONFIG_X86_RUN_64BIT


Kind regards,
