<title>efi: Add embedded peripheral firmware support</title>

<id>f0df68d5bae8825ee5b62f00af237ae82247f045</id>
<content type='text'>
Just like with PCI options ROMs, which we save in the setup_efi_pci*
functions from arch/x86/boot/compressed/eboot.c, the EFI code / ROM itself
sometimes may contain data which is useful/necessary for peripheral drivers
to have access to.

Specifically the EFI code may contain an embedded copy of firmware which
needs to be (re)loaded into the peripheral. Normally such firmware would be
part of linux-firmware, but in some cases this is not feasible, for 2
reasons:

1) The firmware is customized for a specific use-case of the chipset / use
with a specific hardware model, so we cannot have a single firmware file
for the chipset. E.g. touchscreen controller firmwares are compiled
specifically for the hardware model they are used with, as they are
calibrated for a specific model digitizer.

2) Despite repeated attempts we have failed to get permission to
redistribute the firmware. This is especially a problem with customized
firmwares, these get created by the chip vendor for a specific ODM and the
copyright may partially belong with the ODM, so the chip vendor cannot
give a blanket permission to distribute these.

This commit adds support for finding peripheral firmware embedded in the
EFI code and makes the found firmware available through the new
efi_get_embedded_fw() function.

Support for loading these firmwares through the standard firmware loading
mechanism is added in a follow-up commit in this patch-series.

Note we check the EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE for embedded firmware near the end
of start_kernel(), just before calling rest_init(), this is on purpose
because the typical EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE memory-segment is too large for
early_memremap(), so the check must be done after mm_init(). This relies
on EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE not being free-ed until efi_free_boot_services()
is called, which means that this will only work on x86 for now.

Sometimes it is useful to be able to dump the efi boot-services code and
data. This commit adds these as debugfs-blobs to /sys/kernel/debug/efi,
but only if efi=debug is passed on the kernel-commandline as this requires
not freeing those memory-regions, which costs 20+ MB of RAM.

When booting with SME active, EFI tables must be mapped unencrypted since
they were built by UEFI in unencrypted memory. Update the list of tables
to be checked during early_memremap() processing to account for the EFI
RNG seed table.

The systab member in struct efi has outlived its usefulness, now that
we have better ways to access the only piece of information we are
interested in after init, which is the EFI runtime services table
address. So instead of instantiating a doctored copy at early boot
with lots of mangled values, and switching the pointer when switching
into virtual mode, let's grab the values we need directly, and get
rid of the systab pointer entirely.
