- Refactor the zboot code so that it incorporates all the EFI stub
logic, rather than calling the decompressed kernel as a EFI app.
- Add support for initrd= command line option to x86 mixed mode.
- Allow initrd= to be used with arbitrary EFI accessible file systems
instead of just the one the kernel itself was loaded from.
- Move some x86-only handling and manipulation of the EFI memory map
into arch/x86, as it is not used anywhere else.
- More flexible handling of any random seeds provided by the boot
environment (i.e., systemd-boot) so that it becomes available much
earlier during the boot.
- Allow improved arch-agnostic EFI support in loaders, by setting a
uniform baseline of supported features, and adding a generic magic
number to the DOS/PE header. This should allow loaders such as GRUB or
systemd-boot to reduce the amount of arch-specific handling
substantially.
- (arm64) Run EFI runtime services from a dedicated stack, and use it to
recover from synchronous exceptions that might occur in the firmware
code.
- (arm64) Ensure that we don't allocate memory outside of the 48-bit
addressable physical range.
- Make EFI pstore record size configurable
- Add support for decoding CXL specific CPER records

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Another fairly sizable pull request, by EFI subsystem standards.
Most of the work was done by me, some of it in collaboration with the
distro and bootloader folks (GRUB, systemd-boot), where the main focus
has been on removing pointless per-arch differences in the way EFI
boots a Linux kernel.
- Refactor the zboot code so that it incorporates all the EFI stub
logic, rather than calling the decompressed kernel as a EFI app.
- Add support for initrd= command line option to x86 mixed mode.
- Allow initrd= to be used with arbitrary EFI accessible file systems
