Maniaxx reported a kernel boot crash in the EFI code, which I emulated
by using same invalid phys addr in code:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffff280001

There is also a similar bug filed in bugzilla.kernel.org:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195633
The crash is caused by this commit:
7b0a911478 efi/x86: Move the EFI BGRT init code to early init code
The root cause is the firmware on those machines provides invalid BGRT
image addresses.
In a kernel before above commit BGRT initializes late and uses ioremap()
to map the image address. Ioremap validates the address, if it is not a
valid physical address ioremap() just fails and returns. However in current
kernel EFI BGRT initializes early and uses early_memremap() which does not
validate the image address, and kernel panic happens.
According to ACPI spec the BGRT image address should fall into
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA, see the section 5.2.22.4 of below document:
http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_1.pdf
Fix this issue by validating the image address in efi_bgrt_init(). If the
image address does not fall into any EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA areas we just
bail out with a warning message.

Sabrina Dubroca reported an early panic:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffff240001
IP: efi_bgrt_init+0xdc/0x134
[...]
---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
... which was introduced by:
7b0a911478 ("efi/x86: Move the EFI BGRT init code to early init code")
The cause is that on this machine the firmware provides the EFI ACPI BGRT
table even on legacy non-EFI bootups - which table should be EFI only.
The garbage BGRT data causes the efi_bgrt_init() panic.
Add a check to skip efi_bgrt_init() in case non-EFI bootup to work around
this firmware bug.

[ Rewrote the changelog to be more readable. ]

Now with open-source boot firmware (EDK2) supporting ACPI BGRT table
addition even for architectures like AARCH64, it makes sense to move
out the 'efi-bgrt.c' file and supporting infrastructure from 'arch/x86'
directory and house it inside 'drivers/firmware/efi', so that this common
code can be used across architectures.
