Unlike on 32-bit ARM, where we need to pass the stub's version of struct
screen_info to the kernel proper via a configuration table, on 64-bit ARM
it simply involves making the core kernel's copy of struct screen_info
visible to the stub by exposing an __efistub_ alias for it.

<title>arm64/efi: Apply strict permissions to UEFI Runtime Services regions</title>

<content type='text'>
Recent UEFI versions expose permission attributes for runtime services
memory regions, either in the UEFI memory map or in the separate memory
attributes table. This allows the kernel to map these regions with
stricter permissions, rather than the RWX permissions that are used by
default. So wire this up in our mapping routine.

Note that in the absence of permission attributes, we still only map
regions of type EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICE_CODE with the executable bit set.
Also, we base the mapping attributes of EFI_MEMORY_MAPPED_IO on the
type directly rather than on the absence of the EFI_MEMORY_WB attribute.
This is more correct, but is also required for compatibility with the
upcoming support for the Memory Attributes Table, which only carries
permission attributes, not memory type attributes.

This splits off the early EFI init and runtime code that
- discovers the EFI params and the memory map from the FDT, and installs
  the memblocks and config tables.
- prepares and installs the EFI page tables so that UEFI Runtime Services
  can be invoked at the virtual address installed by the stub.

This will allow it to be reused for 32-bit ARM.

Change the EFI memory reservation logic to use memblock_mark_nomap()
rather than memblock_reserve() to mark UEFI reserved regions as
occupied. In addition to reserving them against allocations done by
memblock, this will also prevent them from being covered by the linear
mapping.

Even though initcall return values are typically ignored, the
prototype is to return 0 on success or a negative errno value on
error. So fix the arm_enable_runtime_services() implementation to
return 0 on conditions that are not in fact errors, and return a
meaningful error code otherwise.

Add NULL return value checks to two invocations of early_memremap()
in the UEFI init code. For the UEFI configuration tables, we just
warn since we have a better chance of being able to report the issue
in a way that can actually be noticed by a human operator if we don't
abort right away. For the UEFI memory map, however, all we can do is
panic() since we cannot proceed without a description of memory.

The kernel may use a page granularity of 4K, 16K, or 64K depending on
configuration.

When mapping EFI runtime regions, we use memrange_efi_to_native to round
the physical base address of a region down to a kernel page boundary,
and round the size up to a kernel page boundary, adding the residue left
over from rounding down the physical base address. We do not round down
the virtual base address.

In __create_mapping we account for the offset of the virtual base from a
granule boundary, adding the residue to the size before rounding the
base down to said granule boundary.

Thus we account for the residue twice, and when the residue is non-zero
will cause __create_mapping to map an additional page at the end of the
region. Depending on the memory map, this page may be in a region we are
not intended/permitted to map, or may clash with a different region that
we wish to map. In typical cases, mapping the next item in the memory
map will overwrite the erroneously created entry, as we sort the memory
map in the stub.

As __create_mapping can cope with base addresses which are not page
aligned, we can instead rely on it to map the region appropriately, and
simplify efi_virtmap_init by removing the unnecessary code.

As pointed out by Russell King in response to the proposed ARM version
of this code, the sequence to switch between the UEFI runtime mapping
and current's actual userland mapping (and vice versa) is potentially
unsafe, since it leaves a time window between the switch to the new
page tables and the TLB flush where speculative accesses may hit on
stale global TLB entries.

So instead, use non-global mappings, and perform the switch via the
ordinary ASID-aware context switch routines.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
   merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
   upstreamed via the arm64 tree

 - CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
   where CPUs may not have exactly the same features.  The features
   reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
   delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)

 - Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
   space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT

 - Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64

 - New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
   with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
   feasible)

 - KASan support for arm64

 - EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
   KASan)

 - copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)

 - perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework

 - L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware

 - Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
   merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
   upstreamed via the arm64 tree

 - CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
   where CPUs may not have exactly the same features.  The features
   reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
   delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)

 - Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
   space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT

 - Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64

 - New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
   with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
   feasible)

 - KASan support for arm64

 - EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
   KASan)

 - copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)

 - perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework

 - L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware

 - Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive
   entries may be able to use a single TLB entry)

 - Generic CONFIG_HZ now used on arm64

 - defconfig updates
