Actually, I now see that there is a mix of different comment styles in
the efi.c code. So it should be fine to use the proper style, I'll
change it in v6.

I don't think it's too late, it's never late to make a correction :)
There are some other coding style problems in the efi.c that won't hurt
to fix, I may take a look at fixing them later on.
