Reduce the stack frame of the EFI stub's mixed mode thunk routine by 8 bytes, by moving the GDT and return addresses to EBP and EBX, which we need to preserve anyway, since their top halves will be cleared by the call into 32-bit firmware code. Doing so results in the UEFI code being entered with a 16 byte aligned stack, as mandated by the UEFI spec, fixing the last occurrence in the 64-bit kernel where we violate this requirement. Also, move the saved GDT from a global variable to an unused part of the stack frame, and touch up some other parts of the code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
