This series is out of date, unfortunately. The EFI init code is now
(as of v4.5-rc1) shared between ARM and arm64, which means that any
changes you make must be made on both sides. This applies to the split
between parsing the EFI dt nodes and performing the actual EFI init,
but also to the early_init_dt_add_memory_arch() changes. I am happy to
have a go at this, but first I need a clear statement from whoever
maintains that area that keeping memory nodes *just* for the
annotations (and otherwise ignore them) is the way forward (Rob?
Grant?)
Also, please drop the 6th patch. As i replied to Robert when he
reposted these patches, we need to honor the /reserved-memory node
rather than remove it. I will follow up with an updated
/reserved-memory node validation patch for the EFI stub once these
changes are in.
