#1384059 — [PATCH] x86/efi: Remove the always true EFI_DEBUG symbol

This symbol is always set which makes it useless. Additionally we have
a kernel command-line switch, efi=debug, which actually controls the
printing of the memory map.

Hmm.. Yes, that'd be a good idea. I am in the process of setting up an
Itanium box or two for runtime EFI testing, so I'll make a note of
this task.

Btw, there's also

arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c:45:#define EFI_DEBUG     0
arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c:399:#if EFI_DEBUG
arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c:559:#if EFI_DEBUG

I'm assuming you want to put that behind "if (efi_enabled(EFI_DBG))" too...
