My commitr is currently in approval process for upstream by company.
Hope to get a 'go' next week.

In parallel I am now working on EFI_PCI_IO_CONTROL and run into a
problem while trying to find a common API:
From U-Boot I am accustomed to #define CONFIG_xxxxx usage. This
approach seems not to be used in GRUB but just module selection.

How can I control compilation of component selection dependent code
parts, especially in header files?
e.g. something like this (noted just for demo)
#ifdef EFI_PCI
typedef struct pci_dev {
EFI_type *attr1;
EFI_type *attr2;
};
#else
typedef struct pci_dev {
grub_type *attr3;
grub_type *attr4;
};
#endif
