Yeah, that's what I meant. Coming up.

I'm afraid it doesn't look terribly consistent - some very core
functions, like grub_efi_set_virtual_address_map...
"£$%$^!
Why?
Why???
Why do we have a grub_efi_set_virtual_address_map()?
Requesting permission to nuke.
Anyway, back on topic.
grub_efi_set_variable() sets it.
grub_efi_finish_boot_services() sets it (not that we make use of that
for arm*). To be honest, most calls to grub_error() are in this
function.

I copied existing code without particularly paying any attention to
what it was doing.
Based on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult.
I probably copied i386/pc/linux.c.
