We need to ensure that the EFI stub only uses parts of the kernel proper
that are safe to use when the kernel virtual mapping is not active yet.
So move all C code dependencies to the libstub, and do a verification pass
to ensure that no absolute relocations are used.
On the arm64 side, annotate all the stub's dependencies as safe for PI
(position independent
Changes since v1:
- add .size and .type directives to correctly annotate the __pi_xxx aliases
as functions of the correct size
- add '#ifndef __HAVE_ARCH_STRSTR' around strstr() definition
- added linux-efi/Matt to cc
