Public bug reported:

[Impact]
The Ubuntu kernel is not currently bootable on various arm64 laptops (HP Envy 
x2, Asus NovaGo, Lenovo Miix 630, Lenovo Yoga C630, Samsung ...) because of EFI 
memory permissions/restrictions. The reason is explained in the commit supplied 
below. 

[Test Case]
Install and boot Ubuntu on one of the above arm64 laptops.

[Fix]
Committed upstream: 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=4e46c2a956215482418d7b315749fb1b6c6bc224

[Regression Risk]
This commit adds support for an optional kernel command line parameter so there 
is minimal to no risk.
