consisting of:
- UEFI stub support
Turns the kernel into a UEFI executable, able to launch without a
dedicated bootloader.
- UEFI runtime services
Lets the kernel interact with services provided by firmware.

The existing shared EFI arm/arm64 stub code uses strncmp when parsing
the device tree. Since this function is missing from arm zImage, use
strcmp instead, rather than growing the zImage further.

The ARM decompressor/EFI stub do not implement the functions
(__stack_chk_guard_setup, etc) that are required for support of
stack protection. The actual enablement of stack protection is
controlled by heuristics in GCC, which the code added for the EFI
stub
Since the efi_set_virtual_address_map call has strict init ordering
requirements, add an explicit hook in the required place.

This patch adds EFI stub support for the ARM Linux kernel. The EFI stub
operates similarly to the x86 stub: it is a shim between the EFI
firmware and the normal zImage entry point, and sets up the environment
that the zImage is expecting. This includes
From: Roy Franz roy.fr...@linaro.org
The shared efi-stub-helper.c functions require a strstr implementation.
The EFI stub is part of the decompressor, so it does not use the kernel
strstr() implementation. This patch adds a strstr() implementation to
the string.c file for the decompressor, with
