From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: efi: redefine type, constant, macro from generic code

Generic UUID library defines structure type, macro to define UUID, and the
length of the UUID string. This patch removes duplicate data structure
definition, UUID string length constant  as well as macro for UUID handling.
