From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>

The x86-64 ABI defines a red-zone on the stack:

  The 128-byte area beyond the location pointed to by %rsp is
  considered to be reserved and shall not be modified by signal or
  interrupt handlers. 10 Therefore, functions may use this area for
  temporary data that is not needed across function calls. In
  particular, leaf functions may use this area for their entire stack
  frame, rather than adjusting the stack pointer in the prologue and
  epilogue. This area is known as the red zone.

This is not compatible with exception handling, so disable it for the
pre-decompression boot code.

That 10 is the footnote number from the pdf. :)

I could use some blurb as to what the problem is, for future reference.

That last chunk is not needed anymore after

c2d0b470154c ("efi/libstub/x86: Incorporate eboot.c into libstub")

AFAICT.
