Subject: x86/decompressor: Move global symbol references to C code
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 24388292e2d7fae79a0d4183cc91716b851299cf upstream.
It is no longer necessary to be cautious when referring to global
variables in the position independent decompressor code, now that it is
built using PIE codegen and makes an assertion in the linker script that
no GOT entries exist (which would require adjustment for the actual
runtime load address of the decompressor binary).
This means global variables can be referenced directly from C code,
instead of having to pass their runtime addresses into C routines from
asm code, which needs to happen at each call site. Do so for the code
that will be called directly from the EFI stub after a subsequent patch,
and avoid the need to duplicate this logic a third time.
