Subject: [GIT PULL 0/4] EFI changes for v4.5

Folks,

Here's a couple of cleanups and a bug fix for the ACPI BGRT driver
triggered by the recent isolated EFI page table changes currently
sitting in tip.

The following changes since commit 8005c49d9aea74d382f474ce11afbbc7d7130bec:

  Linux 4.4-rc1 (2015-11-15 17:00:27 -0800)

are available in the git repository at:

  x86/efi-bgrt: Fix kernel panic when mapping BGRT data (2015-12-14 15:24:24 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
 * We don't need to carry our own formatting code in the esrt driver
   because the kobject API can do that for us - Rasmus Villemoes

 * Update the arm64 file paths in Documentation/efi-stub.txt to match
   the current tree - Alan Ott

 * Consistently preface all print statements with "efi" arch/x86 so
   that it's more obvious to users reporting problems which statements
   in the kernel log are relevant for EFI - Matt Fleming

 * Fix a boot crash in the ACPI BGRT driver and delete
   efi_lookup_mapped_addr() since it's useless now that the EFI
   mappings *only* exist in the 'efi_pgd' page table. Instead we
   always early_memremap() the BGRT memory - Sai Praneeth Prakhya
