It's unfortunate that this is the first rather than the last patch in the 
series, as this is
the one I'm not really comfortable applying - remaining in boot services is 
certainly
not a good thing to do, even less so with nevertheless handing all boot 
services code/
data to the allocator.

And independent of that please note that all existing option descriptions start 
with a
lower case letter.
