I merged two EFI/ARM related series, whose v1's I sent out last week: Changes since v1: - added various tags from various people - new patch #3 to undefine __init @Matt: are you happy with all of this going through the arm64 tree? I don't think it clashes with anything else we've got queued up for v4.6 in tip/efi/core Series 1: arm efi minor fixes http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/473027 This fixes two minor issues with the handling of .init data in the stub (#1, #2) Patch #3 is a new patch that un-#defines __init in efistub.h, to catch its inadvertent use in the UEFI stub Patch #4 replaces some instances of early_memremap() with early_memremap_ro() where the region in question is only accessed in r/o mode. Series 2: UEFI stub pre-boot compat checks http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/473189 As discussed earlier today [1], and last year [2], it makes sense for the UEFI stub to perform some basic checks on the hardware for missing features that would prevent the kernel from booting to a state where it can even complain about this. So implements this for ARM, to check on LPAE builds whether the CPU supports it (patch #5), and for arm64, to check whether the build time granule is implemented by the CPU (patch #6). Patch #7 wires it up into the shared init code.
