Merge branch 'core-efi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull EFI changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- further EFI code generalization to make it more workable for ARM64
- various extensions, such as 64-bit framebuffer address support,
UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE support
- code modularization simplifications and cleanups
- new debugging parameters
- various fixes and smaller additions"
