Thanks, drew
Patch-1: Introduces a fix for x86 arch which is ACPI-based to not get into the path of fdt. Patch-2: KUT UEFI-based guest may sometimes fail to exit boot services due to a possible memory map update that might have taken place between efi_get_memory_map() call and efi_exit_boot_services() call. As per UEFI specification (2.10), we need to try and keep updating the memory map as long as we get Invalid key failure. ========= Changelog ========= v3 -> v4: * Dropped patches 3 & 4 from the series as they are not relevant to UEFI improvements introduced in this patchset. This would aid in easier review and upstreaming. * Addressed feedback (Andrew) * Included R-b tag from Andrew Jones. v2 -> v3: * Included R-b tag from Andrew for Patch-1. * Updated patch-2 to not leak memory map information during re-trials to efi_get_memory_map(). v1 -> v2: * Incorporated feedback (Andrew, Mike, Tom) * Updated patch-2 to keep trying to update memory map and calls to exit boot services as long as there is a failure. * Split Page allocation and GHCB page attributes patch into two patches.
