Pull x86 EFI changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Main changes:

   - Add support for earlyprintk=efi which uses the EFI framebuffer.
     Very useful for debugging boot problems.

   - EFI stub support for large memory maps (more than 128 entries)

   - EFI ARM support - this was mostly done by generalizing x86 &lt;-&gt; ARM
     platform differences, such as by moving x86 EFI code into
     drivers/firmware/efi/ and sharing it with ARM.

   - Documentation updates

   - misc fixes"

Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt and
Documentation/x86/x86_64/boot-options.txt contain virtually
identical text describing earlyprintk.

This consolidates the two copies and updates the documentation a
bit.  No one ever documented the:

	earlyprintk=serial,0x1008,115200

syntax, nor mentioned that ARM is now a supported earlyprintk
arch.
