That's certainly not how I envisioned it - I rather expected the
symlink to be created at build time. That's in any event the more
portable solution (for example I tend to keep source trees on
Windows machines for reference, and I don't think symlinks get
properly expressed there when e.g. extracted from a tarball -
may depend on the tool used of course).

Just create it together with the include/asm one.

And then, as said before, I don't think relocating just boot.c is
going to be sufficient, in which case it would seem more consistent
to move all relevant files in one go.

This adjustment (and the related ones) seems unnecessary. The
header is strictly local to xen/arch/x86/efi/ (and should remain
unexposed after the move, but might of course be moved along
with the other files).
