I tested this series with mustang and seattle and they work.

So you can use my "Tested-By: Pratyush Anand <panand at redhat.com>".

Just one Nitpick: In patch 2/3 arm64_header_check_msb(),
arm64_header_page_size() and arm64_header_placement() have been defined but they
have not been used anywhere. So, may be they can be removed.
