[PATCH V6 3/8] Add helper function to get and convert EFI command line

From: Roy Franz
Date: Fri Jan 10 2014 - 11:32:19 EST


Add an EFI stub helper function to retrieve the EFI command line using
the LOADED_IMAGE_PROTOCOL, and convert it to ASCII. This function will
be shared by the various EFI stub implementations.
