It's an oversight! :-)

#define efi_call_virt(f, args...)                                       \
({                                                                      \
        efi_status_t __s;                                               \
        unsigned long flags;                                            \
                                                                        \
        arch_efi_call_virt_setup();                                     \
                                                                        \
        local_save_flags(flags);                                        \
        __s = arch_efi_call_virt(f, args);                              \
        efi_call_virt_check_flags(flags, __stringify(f));               \
                                                                        \
        arch_efi_call_virt_teardown();                                  \
                                                                        \
        __s;                                                            \
})

But if it's too segmented this is fine too:

#define efi_call_virt(f, args...)                                       \
({                                                                      \
        efi_status_t __s;                                               \
        unsigned long flags;                                            \
                                                                        \
        arch_efi_call_virt_setup();                                     \
        local_save_flags(flags);                                        \
        __s = arch_efi_call_virt(f, args);                              \
        efi_call_virt_check_flags(flags, __stringify(f));               \
        arch_efi_call_virt_teardown();                                  \
                                                                        \
        __s;                                                            \
})
