Yes that makes sense. I will resubmit.

I really headed into trouble when I tried to allow building the test for 
x86_64. Building helloworld.efi fails on x86_64, too.

We should at some time dive into the mixture of 64bit and 32bit defined 
in arch/x86/config.mk:

ifneq ($(CONFIG_EFI_STUB_64BIT),)
EFI_LDS := elf_x86_64_efi.lds
EFI_CRT0 := crt0_x86_64_efi.o
EFI_RELOC := reloc_x86_64_efi.o
EFI_TARGET := --target=efi-app-ia32
else
EFI_LDS := elf_ia32_efi.lds
EFI_CRT0 := crt0_ia32_efi.o
EFI_RELOC := reloc_ia32_efi.o
EFI_TARGET := --target=efi-app-x86_64
endif
