Dave Young 792ef14df5 efi: Fix boot panic because of invalid BGRT image address 
Maniaxx reported a kernel boot crash in the EFI code, which I emulated
by using same invalid phys addr in code:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffff280001
  IP: efi_bgrt_init+0xfb/0x153

There is also a similar bug filed in bugzilla.kernel.org:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195633

The crash is caused by this commit:

  7b0a911478 efi/x86: Move the EFI BGRT init code to early init code

The root cause is the firmware on those machines provides invalid BGRT
image addresses.

In a kernel before above commit BGRT initializes late and uses ioremap()
to map the image address. Ioremap validates the address, if it is not a
valid physical address ioremap() just fails and returns. However in current
kernel EFI BGRT initializes early and uses early_memremap() which does not
validate the image address, and kernel panic happens.

According to ACPI spec the BGRT image address should fall into
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA, see the section 5.2.22.4 of below document:

  http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_1.pdf

Fix this issue by validating the image address in efi_bgrt_init(). If the
image address does not fall into any EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA areas we just
bail out with a warning message.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
