With the patch the status code and its mnemonic is printed.

While I think it's very useful to have the status code, I don't want to
waste 1kb of .rodata on every binary out there - that will only drive more
people to disable CONFIG_EFI_LOADER which is the opposite of what we want.

Can you please respin without the string return for now? Maybe we can add a
CONFIG_EFI_LOADER_DEBUG option later on which gives us verbose printing on
demand on a few more bits.

I think the error messages are useful and would like to see this new
option. Bonus points if they can be in lower case :-)

Yeah, thinking about it again, we can even add the string conversion as is but not call it if DEBUG_EFI is not set ;).

And yes, I would really prefer to make all the debugging facilities here slightly more fine grained and smarter.
