Subject: [PATCH] arm64: drop linker script hack to hide __efistub_ symbols

Commit 1212f7a16af4 ("scripts/kallsyms: filter arm64's __efistub_
symbols") updated the kallsyms code to filter out symbols with
the __efistub_ prefix explicitly, so we no longer require the
hack in our linker script to emit them as absolute symbols.
