Merge tag 'x86_boot_for_v6.6_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 boot updates from Borislav Petkov:
"Avoid the baremetal decompressor code when booting on an EFI machine.

This is mandated by the current tightening of EFI executables
requirements when used in a secure boot scenario. More specifically,
an EFI executable cannot have a single section with RWX permissions,
which conflicts with the in-place kernel decompression that is done
today.

Instead, the things required by the booting kernel image are done in
the EFI stub now.

x86/efistub: Perform 4/5 level paging switch from the stub

In preparation for updating the EFI stub boot flow to avoid the bare
metal decompressor code altogether, implement the support code for
switching between 4 and 5 levels of paging before jumping to the kernel
proper.

Reuse the newly refactored trampoline that the bare metal decompressor
uses, but relies on EFI APIs to allocate 32-bit addressable memory and
remap it with the appropriate permissions. Given that the bare metal
decompressor will no longer call into the trampoline if the number of
paging levels is already set correctly, it is no longer needed to remove
NX restrictions from the memory range where this trampoline may end up.
