Subject: [GIT PULL 00/14] EFI changes for v4.14

Hi all,

These are the changes we have queued up in the EFI tree for v4.14. Please
pull.

Russell has been cc'ed twice on the patches that touch the linker script
of the ARM decompressor, and has elected not to respond, so I assume he
has no objections.

The following changes since commit 5771a8c08880cdca3bfb4a3fc6d309d6bba20877:

  Linux v4.13-rc1 (2017-07-15 15:22:10 -0700)

are available in the git repository at:

  firmware: efi: esrt: constify attribute_group structures. (2017-08-18 19:55:50 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
EFI changes for v4.14:
- don't mark ACPI reclaim regions as NOMAP on ARM
- update the compiler flags for the arm64 version of the EFI stub so that
  we can be confident that no absolute relocations are emitted, even when
  using clang
- update the EFI framebuffer address if points to a BAR that gets moved
  by the PCI resource allocation code
- fallback to other poweroff method if EFI poweroff fails (and returns)
- use separate PE/COFF section headers for the RX and RW parts of the ARM
  stub loader so that the firmware can use strict mapping permissions
- constify some struct attribute_group instances

----------------------------------------------------------------
Ard Biesheuvel (10):
      efi: arm: Don't mark ACPI reclaim memory as MEMBLOCK_NOMAP
      efi/libstub: arm64: use hidden attribute for struct screen_info reference
      efi/libstub: arm64: force 'hidden' visibility for section markers
      efi/libstub: arm64: set -fpie when building the EFI stub
      efi: arm/arm64: Add missing assignment of efi.config_table
      drivers/fbdev: efifb: allow BAR to be moved instead of claiming it
      arm: efi: remove forbidden values from the PE/COFF header
      arm: efi: remove pointless dummy .reloc section
      arm: efi: replace open coded constants with symbolic ones
      arm: efi: split zImage code and data into separate PE/COFF sections

Arvind Yadav (3):
      firmware: dcdbas: constify attribute_group structures.
      firmware: efi: constify attribute_group structures.
      firmware: efi: esrt: constify attribute_group structures.

Hans de Goede (1):
      efi/reboot: Fall back to original power-off method if EFI_RESET_SHUTDOWN returns
