This looks like it's going to conflict with Mark's "[PATCH 6/6] arm64:
add EFI runtime services".

Guys, what's going on here? Srsly. The dependency chain is so nuts that
I'm struggling to even review these patches. Good luck to the maintainer
that wants to merge this stuff.

Can't you guys work together a bit more closely so that all of your
patches feel like one logical progression of work?
