<title>efi: Get and store the secure boot status</title>

<content type='text'>
Get the firmware's secure-boot status in the kernel boot wrapper and stash
it somewhere that the main kernel image can find.

The efi_get_secureboot() function is extracted from the ARM stub and (a)
generalised so that it can be called from x86 and (b) made to use
efi_call_runtime() so that it can be run in mixed-mode.

For x86, it is stored in boot_params and can be overridden by the boot
loader or kexec.  This allows secure-boot mode to be passed on to a new
kernel.

Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
  partitioning mechanism.

  The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
  odd as well.

  We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
  rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
  per package nature of this mechanism.

  In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
  combinations of the hardware can be utilized.

  There are two ways of associating a cache partition:

   - Task

     A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
     partition associated to the group.

   - CPU

     All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
     which the CPU they are running on is associated with.

     That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.

  The main expected user sare:

   - Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
     the cash w/o disturbing others

   - Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.

   - Latency sensitive enterprise workloads

   - In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
     channel attacks"

[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
  rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
  was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
  the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
  had more time.

  But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
  _so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
  user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
  push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will
  break ]

  It's another busy cycle for the docs tree, as the sphinx conversion

   - Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but

   - Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx. Only 27 to

   - Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of
