+ * These should be formatted roughly like the ones in the UEFI SPEC has

+ * you're staring at them. Here's the guide:
+ *
+ * GUID: 12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012
+ * Spec:
+ * #define EFI_SOME_PROTOCOL_GUID \

+ * {0x12,0x34,0x12,0x34,0x56,0x78,0x90,0x12}}
+ * Here:
+ * #define SOME_PROTOCOL_GUID \
+ * EFI_GUID(0x12345678, 0x1234, 0x1234, \
+ * 0x12, 0x34, 0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x78, 0x90, 0x12)
