Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"arm64 updates for 3.20:
- reimplementation of the virtual remapping of UEFI Runtime Services
in a way that is stable across kexec
- emulation of the "setend" instruction for 32-bit tasks (user
endianness switching trapped in the kernel, SCTLR_EL1.E0E bit set
accordingly)
- compat_sys_call_table implemented in C (from asm) and made it a
constant array together with sys_call_table
- export CPU cache information via /sys (like other architectures)
- DMA API implementation clean-up in preparation for IOMMU support
- macros clean-up for KVM
- dropped some unnecessary cache+tlb maintenance
- CONFIG_ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND clean-up
- defconfig update (CPU_IDLE)
The EFI changes going via the arm64 tree have been acked by Matt
Fleming. There is also a patch adding sys_*stat64 prototypes to
include/linux/syscalls.h, acked by Andrew Morton"

This fixes two minor issues in the implementation of get_memory_map():
- Currently, it assumes that sizeof(efi_memory_desc_t) == desc_size,
which is usually true, but not mandated by the spec. (This was added
intentionally to allow future additions to the definition of
efi_memory_desc_t). The way the loop is implemented currently, the
added slack space may be insufficient if desc_size is larger, which in
some corner cases could result in the loop never terminating.
- It allocates 32 efi_memory_desc_t entries first (again, using the size
of the struct instead of desc_size), and frees and reallocates if it
turns out to be insufficient. Few implementations of UEFI have such small
memory maps, which results in a unnecessary allocate/free pair on each
invocation.
Fix this by calling the get_memory_map() boot service first with a '0'
input value for map size to retrieve the map size and desc size from the
firmware and only then perform the allocation, using desc_size rather
than sizeof(efi_memory_desc_t).

This ensures all stub component are freed when the kernel proper is
done booting, by prefixing the names of all ELF sections that have
the SHF_ALLOC attribute with ".init". This approach ensures that even
implicitly emitted allocated data (like initializer values and string
literals) are covered.
At the same time, remove some __init annotations in the stub that have
now become redundant, and add the __init annotation to handle_kernel_image
which will now trigger a section mismatch warning without it.

On systems with 64 KB pages, it is preferable for UEFI memory map
entries to be 64 KB aligned multiples of 64 KB, because it relieves
us of having to deal with the residues.
So, if EFI_ALLOC_ALIGN is #define'd by the platform, use it to round
up all memory allocations made.

We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in
particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used
when reading files from the EFI System Partition.
One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to
a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug
workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with
commit 4bf7111f50 ("x86/efi: Support initrd loaded above 4G"), and
that commit is perfectly valid. The symptom I observed was a corrupt
initrd rather than any kind of crash.
efi= is now used to specify EFI parameters in two very different
execution environments, the EFI boot stub and during kernel boot.
There is also a slight performance optimization by enabling efi=nochunk,
but that's offset by the fact that you're more likely to run into
firmware issues, at least on x86. This is the rationale behind leaving
the workaround enabled by default.
Also provide some documentation for EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE and why we're
using the current value of 1MB.

This patch changes both x86 and arm64 efistub implementations
from #including shared .c files under drivers/firmware/efi to
building shared code as a static library.
The x86 code uses a stub built into the boot executable which
uncompresses the kernel at boot time. In this case, the library is
linked into the decompressor.
In the arm64 case, the stub is part of the kernel proper so the library
is linked into the kernel proper as well.
