[PATCH] arm64: Relocate screen_info.lfb_base on PCI BAR allocation

When booting with efifb, we get a frame buffer address passed into the system.
This address can be backed by any device, including PCI devices.

PCI devices can have their BARs mapped to various places inside the PCI window
though. Linux makes use of that on early boot and usually maps PCI BARs wherever
it thinks makes sense.

If we now load the efifb driver after that BAR map has happened, the frame
buffer address we received may be invalid, because it was in a BAR map before
Linux modified it.

To work around that issue, this patch introduces a BAR mapping callback that
gets called every time Linux (re)allocates a BAR. That way our arm64 efi code
can check whether the frame buffer is inside the old map and adjust it to
the new one.

With this and the efifb patches applied, I can successfully see efifb output
even after Linux remapped BARs.
