For now, predicate CONFIG_EFI_STUB on !CONFIG_X86_USE_3DNOW. This is most definitely a temporary fix. A complete solution will involve selectively including kernel headers/symbols into the early-boot execution environment of the EFI boot stub, i.e. something analogous to the way that the _SETUP symbol is used. Previous attempts have been made to fix this kind of problem, though none seem to have ever been merged, http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120329104822.GA17233@x1.osrc.amd.com Clearly, this problem has been around for a long time.
