  Sorry for the very late review of this patch.

The code itself looks fine, but I did encounter one new binutils testsuite failure.
This was for an aarch64-linux-gnu toolchain and the failure was:

   regexp_diff match failure
   regexp "^  0 \.text         00000030  0000000000400000  0000000000400000  00000200  2\*\*2$"
   line   "  0 .text         00000030  00000000004000b0  00000000004000b0  000002b0  2**2"
   FAIL: Check if efi app format is recognized

So your patch is approved provided that you make a small update to the regexp for
this particular test.

Cheers
   Nick
