 Notes
 =====
 
-- This header can also be reused to support EFI stub for RISC-V in future. EFI
-  specification needs PE/COFF image header in the beginning of the kernel image
-  in order to load it as an EFI application. In order to support EFI stub,
-  code0 should be replaced with "MZ" magic string and res3(at offset 0x3c) should
-  point to the rest of the PE/COFF header.
