We are using strcmp() as the cmp_func, where in the EDK2 environment
strcmp actually ends up being the external AsciiStrCmp() function —
an EFI library function defined with the Microsoft ABI.
This means that we can't just assign function pointers to it, since
in GCC-hosted builds the ABI of any function *not* explicitly marked
EFIAPI is the native SysV ABI.
Arguably this stupidity ought to be resolved on the UEFI side, but in
the general case that would mean that we need to provide ABI-compatible
wrappers for *all* the "standard" functions, just in case they're used
like this.
And in fact we already have a workaround here for DEC C. So instead of
playing games with casting function pointers, it's nicer just to use a
simple function to wrap the strcmp() call. That cleans up the DEC C
workaround, *and* it works around the UEFI bogosity at the same time.
