There's no guarantee that when this patch gets applied, the next patch
will be the one you mean. So explain what you mean here instead.

When you send someone else's patch, you need to add your SOB. Lemme
point you to

  Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

again. Please have a deeper look.

Do not break that line.

This function's name is wrong. Make it like this:

static int
map_efi_systab(struct x86_mapping_info *info, pgd_t *level4p)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_EFI

	...

#endif

	return 0;
}

and drop the #else ifdeffery.

Flip that logic:

	if (!mstart)
		return 0;

	return kernel_ident_mapping_init(info, level4p, mstart, mend);

and let the function stick out.

Good mailing practices for 400: avoid top-posting and trim the reply.
