I just realized, I had to move this line all the way upto efi_get_var in
order to avoid the following compilation warnings/errors (for x86 build):

lib/efi.c:299:14: error: ‘efi_get_var’ defined but not used
[-Werror=unused-function]
  299 | static void* efi_get_var(efi_handle_t handle, struct
efi_loaded_image_64 *image, efi_char16_t *var)
      |              ^~~~~~~~~~~
lib/efi.c:210:13: error: ‘efi_load_image’ defined but not used
[-Werror=unused-function]

efi_loaded_image_64 *image, void **data,
      |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
