SubjectRe: [PATCH v8 24/40] x86/compressed/acpi: move EFI system table lookup to helper

Nah, that's doing two things in one function.

The signature should be a lot simpler:

unsigned long efi_get_system_table(struct boot_params *bp)

returns 0 on failure, non-null on success and then it returns the
physical address of the system table.

This...

... up to here needs to be another function:

enum get_efi_type(sig)

where enum is { EFI64, EFI32, INVALID } or so.

And you call this function at the call sites:

if (efi_get_type(sig) == INVALID)
error...

sys_tbl_pa = efi_get_system_table(bp);
if (!sys_tbl_pa)
error...


Completely pseudo but you get the idea.

Thx.
