Hmm, did you compile test this? I get:

/home/konrad/ssd/linux/arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c:62: error: ‘efi_reserve_boot_services_generic’ undeclared here (not in a function)

The patch below fixes it:

Subject: [PATCH] efi: Fix compiler error introduced by moving of the code
 decleration.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The compiler error is :

arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c:62: error: ‘efi_reserve_boot_services_generic’ undeclared here (not in a function

And declearing it before the use fixes the issue.
