Linus Torvalds a776c270a0 Merge branch 'efi-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The EFI changes in this cycle are much larger than usual, for two
  (positive) reasons:

   - The GRUB project is showing signs of life again, resulting in the
     introduction of the generic Linux/UEFI boot protocol, instead of
     x86 specific hacks which are increasingly difficult to maintain.
     There's hope that all future extensions will now go through that
     boot protocol.

   - Preparatory work for RISC-V EFI support.

  The main changes are:

   - Boot time GDT handling changes

   - Simplify handling of EFI properties table on arm64

   - Generic EFI stub cleanups, to improve command line handling, file
     I/O, memory allocation, etc.

   - Introduce a generic initrd loading method based on calling back
     into the firmware, instead of relying on the x86 EFI handover
     protocol or device tree.

   - Introduce a mixed mode boot method that does not rely on the x86
     EFI handover protocol either, and could potentially be adopted by
     other architectures (if another one ever surfaces where one
     execution mode is a superset of another)

   - Clean up the contents of 'struct efi', and move out everything that
     doesn't need to be stored there.

   - Incorporate support for UEFI spec v2.8A changes that permit
     firmware implementations to return EFI_UNSUPPORTED from UEFI
     runtime services at OS runtime, and expose a mask of which ones are
     supported or unsupported via a configuration table.

   - Partial fix for the lack of by-VA cache maintenance in the
     decompressor on 32-bit ARM.

   - Changes to load device firmware from EFI boot service memory
     regions

   - Various documentation updates and minor code cleanups and fixes"
