[PATCH 0/8] efi: Pass secure boot mode to kernel [ver #5]

Here's a set of patches that can determine the secure boot state of the
UEFI BIOS and pass that along to the main kernel image.  This involves
generalising ARM's efi_get_secureboot() function and making it mixed-mode
safe.

Changes:

 Ver 5:

  - Fix i386 compilation error (rsi should've been changed to esi).

  - Fix arm64 compilation error ('sys_table_arg' is a hidden macro parameter).

 Ver 4:

  - Use an enum to tell the kernel whether secure boot mode is enabled,
    disabled, couldn't be determined or wasn't even tried due to not being
    in EFI mode.

  - Support the UEFI-2.6 DeployedMode flag.

  - Don't clear boot_params->secure_boot in x86 sanitize_boot_params().

  - Preclear the boot_params->secure_boot on x86 head_*.S entry if we may
    not go through efi_main().

The patches can be found here also:

Note that the patches are not terminal on the branch.
