I haven't really jumped into this but, whilst I see the use of EFI_STUB on both arm and arm64, there seems to be some duplication/reinvention between the two series you've put together. Maybe I'm just being ignorant, but the stuff in efi-stub.c really looks to be doing the same thing on both architectures. Would you guys be able to work to together to produce an independent series containing the common parts, then add arm/arm64 backends on top of that please? In particular, factoring out the device-tree parts ensures that we don't introduce subtle differences between the two architectures when there's no real need to do so... ...or shout at me because I didn't understand what you were doing!
