Subject: [PATCH v2 03/16] x86/compressed: efi-mixed: move bootargs parsing out of 32-bit startup code

Move the logic that chooses between the different EFI entrypoints out of
the 32-bit boot path, and into a 64-bit helper that can perform the same
task much more cleanly. While at it, document the mixed mode boot flow
in a code comment.

+/*
+ * When booting in 64-bit mode on 32-bit EFI firmware, startup_64_mixedmode()
+ * is the first thing that runs after switching to long mode. Depending on
+ * whether the EFI handover protocol or the compat entry point was used to
+ * enter the kernel, it will either branch to the 64-bit EFI handover
+ * entrypoint at offset 0x390 in the image, or to the 64-bit EFI PE/COFF
+ * entrypoint efi_pe_entry(). In the former case, the bootloader must provide a
+ * struct bootparams pointer as the third argument, so the presence of such a
+ * pointer is used to disambiguate.
