On arm64, we have made some changes over the past year to the way the
kernel itself is allocated and to how it deals with the initrd and FDT.
This patch brings the allocation logic in the EFI stub in line with that,
which is necessary because the introduction of KASLR has created the
possibility for the initrd to be allocated in a place where the kernel
may not be able to map it. (This is mostly a theoretical scenario, since
it only affects systems where the physical memory footprint exceeds the
size of the linear mapping.)
Since we know the kernel itself will be covered by the linear mapping,
choose a suitably sized window (i.e., based on the size of the linear
region) covering the kernel when allocating memory for the initrd.
The FDT may be anywhere in memory on arm64 now that we map it via the
fixmap, so we can lift the address restriction there completely.

We already have a macro to invoke boot services which on x86 adapts
automatically to the bitness of the EFI firmware: efi_call_early().
The macro allows sharing of functions across arches and bitness variants
as long as those functions only call boot services. However in practice
functions in the EFI stub contain a mix of boot services calls and
protocol calls.
Add an efi_call_proto() macro for bitness-agnostic protocol calls to
allow sharing more code across arches as well as deduplicating 32 bit
and 64 bit code paths.
On x86, implement it using a new efi_table_attr() macro for bitness-
agnostic table lookups. Refactor efi_call_early() to make use of the
same macro. (The resulting object code remains identical.)

This commit makes a few slight modifications to the efi_call_virt() macro
to get it to work with function pointers that are stored in locations
other than efi.systab->runtime, and renames the macro to
efi_call_virt_pointer(). The majority of the changes here are to pull
these macros up into header files so that they can be accessed from
outside of drivers/firmware/efi/runtime-wrappers.c.
The most significant change not directly related to the code move is to
add an extra "p" argument into the appropriate efi_call macros, and use
that new argument in place of the, formerly hard-coded,
efi.systab->runtime pointer.
The last piece of the puzzle was to add an efi_call_virt() macro back into
drivers/firmware/efi/runtime-wrappers.c to wrap around the new
efi_call_virt_pointer() macro - this was mainly to keep the code from
looking too cluttered by adding a bunch of extra references to
efi.systab->runtime everywhere.
Note that I also broke up the code in the efi_call_virt_pointer() macro a
bit in the process of moving it.

This patch adds EFI stub support for the ARM Linux kernel.
The EFI stub operates similarly to the x86 and arm64 stubs: it is a
shim between the EFI firmware and the normal zImage entry point, and
sets up the environment that the zImage is expecting. This includes
optionally loading the initrd and device tree from the system partition
based on the kernel command line.

This adds support to the kernel proper for booting via UEFI. It shares
most of the code with arm64, so this patch mostly just wires it up for
use with ARM.
Note that this does not include the EFI stub, it is added in a subsequent
patch.
