Pull more ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The most significant item here is the Platform Firmware Runtime Update
  and Telemetry (PFRUT) support designed to allow certain pieces of the
  platform firmware to be updated on the fly, among other things.

  Also important is the e820 handling change on x86 that should work
  around PCI BAR allocation issues on some systems shipping since 2019.

  The rest is just a handful of assorted fixes and cleanups on top of
  the ACPI material merged previously.

  Specifics:

   - Add support for the the Platform Firmware Runtime Update and
     Telemetry (PFRUT) interface based on ACPI to allow certain pieces
     of the platform firmware to be updated without restarting the
     system and to provide a mechanism for collecting platform firmware
     telemetry data (Chen Yu, Dan Carpenter, Yang Yingliang).

   - Ignore E820 reservations covering PCI host bridge windows on
     sufficiently recent x86 systems to avoid issues with allocating PCI
     BARs on systems where the E820 reservations cover the entire PCI
     host bridge memory window returned by the _CRS object in the
     system's ACPI tables (Hans de Goede).

   - Fix and clean up acpi_scan_init() (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Add more sanity checking to ACPI SPCR tables parsing (Mark
     Langsdorf).

   - Fix up ACPI APD (AMD Soc) driver initialization (Jiasheng Jiang).

   - Drop unnecessary "static" from the ACPI PCC address space handling
     driver added recently (kernel test robot)"

Platform Firmware Runtime Update image starts with UEFI headers, and the
headers are defined in UEFI specification, but some of them have not been
defined in the kernel yet.

For example, the header layout of a capsule file looks like this:

EFI_CAPSULE_HEADER
EFI_FIRMWARE_MANAGEMENT_CAPSULE_HEADER
EFI_FIRMWARE_MANAGEMENT_CAPSULE_IMAGE_HEADER
EFI_FIRMWARE_IMAGE_AUTHENTICATION

These structures would be used by the Platform Firmware Runtime Update
driver to parse the format of capsule file to verify if the corresponding
version number is valid. In this way, if the user provides an invalid
capsule image, the kernel could be used as a guard to reject it, without
switching to the Management Mode (which might be costly).

EFI_CAPSULE_HEADER has been defined in the kernel, but the other
structures have not been defined yet, so do that. Besides,
EFI_FIRMWARE_MANAGEMENT_CAPSULE_HEADER and
EFI_FIRMWARE_MANAGEMENT_CAPSULE_IMAGE_HEADER are required to be packed
in the uefi specification. For this reason, use the __packed attribute
to indicate to the compiler that the entire structure can appear
misaligned in memory (as suggested by Ard) in case one of them follows
the other directly in a capsule header.

Commit 8633ef82f101 ("drivers/firmware: consolidate EFI framebuffer setup
for all arches") made the Generic System Framebuffers (sysfb) driver able
to be built on non-x86 architectures.

But it left the efifb_setup_from_dmi() function prototype declaration in
the architecture specific headers. This could lead to the following
compiler warning as reported by the kernel test robot:

   drivers/firmware/efi/sysfb_efi.c:70:6: warning: no previous prototype for function 'efifb_setup_from_dmi' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
   void efifb_setup_from_dmi(struct screen_info *si, const char *opt)

   drivers/firmware/efi/sysfb_efi.c:70:1: note: declare 'static' if the function is not intended to be used outside of this translation unit

Introduce a new AMD Memory Encryption GUID which is currently
used for defining a new UEFI environment variable which indicates
UEFI/OVMF support for the SEV live migration feature. This variable
is setup when UEFI/OVMF detects host/hypervisor support for SEV
live migration and later this variable is read by the kernel using
EFI runtime services to verify if OVMF supports the live migration
feature.

<title>efi: use 32-bit alignment for efi_guid_t literals</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=fb98cc0b3af2ba4d87301dff2b381b12eee35d7d'/>
<id>fb98cc0b3af2ba4d87301dff2b381b12eee35d7d</id>
<content type='text'>
Commit 494c704f9af0 ("efi: Use 32-bit alignment for efi_guid_t") updated
the type definition of efi_guid_t to ensure that it always appears
sufficiently aligned (the UEFI spec is ambiguous about this, but given
the fact that its EFI_GUID type is defined in terms of a struct carrying
a uint32_t, the natural alignment is definitely &gt;= 32 bits).

However, we missed the EFI_GUID() macro which is used to instantiate
efi_guid_t literals: that macro is still based on the guid_t type,
which does not have a minimum alignment at all. This results in warnings
such as

  In file included from drivers/firmware/efi/mokvar-table.c:35:
  include/linux/efi.h:1093:34: warning: passing 1-byte aligned argument to
      4-byte aligned parameter 2 of 'get_var' may result in an unaligned pointer
      access [-Walign-mismatch]
          status = get_var(L"SecureBoot", &amp;EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID, NULL, &amp;size,
                                          ^
  include/linux/efi.h:1101:24: warning: passing 1-byte aligned argument to
      4-byte aligned parameter 2 of 'get_var' may result in an unaligned pointer
      access [-Walign-mismatch]
          get_var(L"SetupMode", &amp;EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID, NULL, &amp;size, &amp;setupmode);

The distinction only matters on CPUs that do not support misaligned loads
fully, but 32-bit ARM's load-multiple instructions fall into that category,
and these are likely to be emitted by the compiler that built the firmware
for loading word-aligned 128-bit GUIDs from memory

So re-implement the initializer in terms of our own efi_guid_t type, so that
the alignment becomes a property of the literal's type.

  include/linux/efi.h:1101:24: warning: passing 1-byte aligned argument to
      4-byte aligned parameter 2 of 'get_var' may result in an unaligned pointer
      access [-Walign-mismatch]
          get_var(L"SetupMode", &amp;EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID, NULL, &amp;size, &amp;setupmode);

The distinction only matters on CPUs that do not support misaligned loads
fully, but 32-bit ARM's load-multiple instructions fall into that category,
and these are likely to be emitted by the compiler that built the firmware
for loading word-aligned 128-bit GUIDs from memory

So re-implement the initializer in terms of our own efi_guid_t type, so that
the alignment becomes a property of the literal's type.

Fixes: 494c704f9af0 ("efi: Use 32-bit alignment for efi_guid_t")

Move TPM related definitions that are only used in the EFI stub into
efistub.h, which is a local header.
