[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 18/18] efi_loader: helper function to add EFI object to list

Heinrich Schuchardt xypron.glpk at gmx.de
Sun Nov 12 14:02:47 UTC 2017


To avoid duplicate coding provide a helper function that
initializes an EFI object and adds it to the EFI object
list.

efi_exit() is the only place where we dereference a handle
to obtain a protocol interface. Add a comment to the function.
