-The UEFI spec and EDK2 reference implementation both define EFI_GUID as
-struct { u32 a; u16; b; u16 c; u8 d[8]; }; and so the implied alignment
-is 32 bits not 8 bits like our guid_t. In some cases (i.e., on 32-bit ARM),
-this means that firmware services invoked by the kernel may assume that
-efi_guid_t* arguments are 32-bit aligned, and use memory accessors that
-do not tolerate misalignment. So let's set the minimum alignment to 32 bits.
-
-Note that the UEFI spec as well as some comments in the EDK2 code base
-suggest that EFI_GUID should be 64-bit aligned, but this appears to be
-a mistake, given that no code seems to exist that actually enforces that
-or relies on it.
