This series adds support to ARM and arm64 for using the kernel's EFI
framebuffer driver to drive EFI Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) based
framebuffers.

This involves refactoring some of the existing x86 code so it can be reused
by ARM and arm64, and wiring it up both in the UEFI stub and in the core
kernel into the existing UEFI infrastructure for ARM and arm64.
Given that I have access to a variety of different ARM64 UEFI
implementations, how would I go about testing this code? Do I
need a specific UEFI implementation and are there any special
command line arguments I should pass to the kernel?
