Folks, please pull the following changes for v4.6. This mostly
consists of cleanups but the patches to execute EFI runtime services
with interrupts enabled would benefit from a thorough baking in
linux-next.
I'm sending this pull nice and early so that we can shake out any bugs
before the next merge window.
The following changes since commit 753b11ef8e92a1c1bbe97f2a5ec14bdd1ef2e6fe:
x86/efi: Setup separate EFI page tables in kexec paths (2016-01-21 21:01:34 +0100)

x86/efi: Print size in binary units in efi_print_memmap (2016-02-01 20:52:49 +0000)
----------------------------------------------------------------
* Run EFI runtime services with interrupts enabled for the benefit of
uniprocessor machines with slow variable stores and because there's
no good reason to disable them since we don't invoke runtime services
from IRQ code paths - Ard Biesheuvel
* Use the existing to_efivar_entry() accessor function in the efivars
code instead of open-coding it - Geliang Tang
* Align the ACPI BGRT driver more closely with how Windows interprets
the 'status' field so we can use the BGRT image - Môshe van der Sterre
* checkpatch.pl cleanup of the GUIDs in efi.h which has the added
benefit of making them more closely resemble how they're presented
in the UEFI specification - Peter Jones
* Refactor the x86 EFI memory map printing code and add improved
support for printing Persistent Memory entries - Robert Elliott,
Andy Shevchenko
