This repurposes the existing EFI earlyprintk support and exposes it
as an earlycon implementation, which can be enabled by passing the
kernel parameter 'earlycon=efi' on the command line.
Note that the early console is initialized before we have discovered
anything about the memory map, and so we cannot determine automatically
whether the framebuffer is backed by system memory that must be mapped
with cacheable attributes. So instead, a 'ram' earlycon option is
implemented to force this manually.
