    Hmm, my mail client seems to have mangled the patch. I've attached it here.

    Subject: [PATCH 1/1] x86, efi: EFI boot stub config file support

    When booting via the EFI boot stub, search for a file named 'linux.conf' in
    the same directory as the bzImage and read the kernel command line from it
    when no load options are passed.

    The file search should only be triggered when the bzImage is loaded from the
    firmware's boot process. When loaded via an EFI shell, the load options always
    contain at least one character, even if no parameters were passed at the
    prompt.
