I'm a little worried that something might sample this flag between it
being set in an early_initcall (arm_enable_runtime_services), and
cleared in a subsys_initcall here.

However, nothing seems to do that so far, so maybe that's ok...

Can we please give this enum a name....

... and use it here rather than an opaque u8? I realise that means
placing the enum in <linux/efi.h>.

Thanks,
