That should be a lot cleaner, I will make that change in the next patchset.

I will reorder the structure in the next patchset. I originally used 
this order because that is the order the entries appear in the spec 
(table 260 and 261 of UEFI spec 2.6). It makes more sense to save the 
space though.

Thanks,
Tyler
