The relocated kernel image is copied to its new location using memcpy().
On architectures with separate instruction and data caches, the copied
instructions may remain stale in the instruction cache, leading to the
execution of outdated contents.

Call efi_cache_sync_image() after the relocation copy to ensure the
instruction cache is synchronized with the updated memory contents before
control is transferred to the relocated kernel.

LoongArch is the only arch that still uses efi_relocate_kernel(), so
before making changes to it that LoongArch needs, turn it into a private
function. Move efi_low_alloc_above() into mem.c while at it, and drop
the relocate.c source file altogether.

<title>efi: pstore: Drop efivar lock when efi_pstore_open() returns with an error</title>

<content type='text'>
If kzalloc fails, the function returns -ENOMEM without calling
efivar_unlock(). Since open() returned  an error, the calling site
in pstore_get_backend_records() won't call the close() function, so
the lock is never released. Thus drop the lock in case of errors here.

Pull Kbuild/Kconfig updates from Nicolas Schier:
 "Kbuild:
   - reject unexpected values for LLVM=
   - uapi: remove usage of toolchain headers
   - switch from '-fms-extensions' to '-fms-anonymous-structs' when
     available (currently: clang &gt;= 23.0.0)
   - reduce the number of compiler-generated suffixes for clang thin-lto
     build
   - reduce output spam ("GEN Makefile") when building out of tree
   - improve portability for testing headers
   - also test UAPI headers against C++ compilers
   - drop build ID architecture allow-list in vdso_install
   - only run checksyscalls when necessary
   - update the debug information notes in reproducible-builds.rst
   - expand inlining hints with -fdiagnostics-show-inlining-chain

  Kconfig:
   - forbid multiple entries with the same symbol in a choice
   - error out on duplicated kconfig inclusion"
