This patch causes an immediate reboot in linux-next when booting
in qemu with an efi32 bios. Bisect log attached.

Qemu command line:

qemu-system-x86_64 -kernel arch/x86/boot/bzImage -m 1G \
	-no-reboot -snapshot \
	-bios OVMF-pure-efi-32.fd \
	-drive file=rootfs.ext2,format=raw \
	--append 'earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 panic=-1 root=/dev/sda console=ttyS0' \
	-nographic

The same command succeeds with OVMF-pure-efi-64.fd.

Bisect log attached.
