Hi Alex,

sorry for taking a while to get back to you.

I've been able to confirm that this is indeed a problem.
It seems to be related to using the EFI rid in the hypervisor
for at least SAL. I'm not really sure why this is occuring.
I'll poke a bit further, but if anyone has any ideas please
ping me.
