My kernel is not so quiet at the info loglevel; specifically from efi I
see these prints (third log line added by this patch):

[ 0.000000] efi: EFI v2.70 by EDK II
[ 0.000000] efi: SMBIOS=0x7f541000 ACPI=0x7f77e000 ACPI 2.0=0x7f77e014 MEMATTR=0x7ea0c018 CocoSecret=0x7ea0b018
[ 0.000000] efi: Reserved memory of EFI-provided confidential computing secret area

This print is useful to understand that both OVMF (EFI) and kernel support
the confidential computing secret area.

It is currently not freed. I tried to look for such memory freeing of
other EFI-provided memory areas (such as efi.tpm_final_log) and couldn't
find them. Can you please share pointers/examples of how to do that?

Thanks,
