[PATCH v2 04/12] arm64/efi: split off EFI init and runtime code for reuse by 32-bit ARM

Hi Matt,

Thanks for taking a look. Note that this patch only moves code from
one file to the other, and I am reluctant to fix bugs at the same
time. Most of your comments deserve a followup however, so I will make
sure this gets addressed at some point.

Indeed.

No, this is correct (although confusing). npages has been converted to
native page size, so PAGE_SHIFT is appropriate here

Hmm, right. I wasn't even aware that memblock could resize itself in
the first place.

Yep,

Thanks,
