0ec7ae928a efi: Remove unnecessary (and buggy) .memmap initialization from the Xen EFI driver
So the following commit:

  884f4f66ff ("efi: Remove global 'memmap' EFI memory map")

... triggered the following build warning on x86 64-bit allyesconfig:

drivers/xen/efi.c:290:47: warning: missing braces around initializer [-Wmissing-braces]

It's this initialization in drivers/xen/efi.c:

  static const struct efi efi_xen __initconst = {
  ...
        .memmap                   = NULL, /* Not used under Xen. */
  ...

which was forgotten about, as .memmap now is an embedded struct:

        struct efi_memory_map memmap;

We can remove this initialization - it's an EFI core internal data structure plus
it's not used in the Xen driver anyway.

cfafae9403 xen: rename dom0_op to platform_op
The dom0_op hypercall has been renamed to platform_op since Xen 3.2,
which is ancient, and modern upstream Linux kernels cannot run as dom0
and it anymore anyway.

e1ccbbc9d5 efi: dmi: add support for SMBIOS 3.0 UEFI configuration table
This adds support to the UEFI side for detecting the presence of
a SMBIOS 3.0 64-bit entry point. This allows the actual SMBIOS
structure table to reside at a physical offset over 4 GB, which
cannot be supported by the legacy SMBIOS 32-bit entry point.

Since the firmware can legally provide both entry points, store
the SMBIOS 3.0 entry point in a separate variable, and let the
DMI decoding layer decide which one will be used.

342cd340f6 xen/efi: Directly include needed headers
I discovered that some needed stuff is defined/declared in headers
which are not included directly. Currently it works but if somebody
remove required headers from currently included headers then build
will break. So, just in case directly include all needed headers.

be81c8a1da xen: Put EFI machinery in place
This patch enables EFI usage under Xen dom0. Standard EFI Linux
Kernel infrastructure cannot be used because it requires direct
access to EFI data and code. However, in dom0 case it is not possible
because above mentioned EFI stuff is fully owned and controlled
by Xen hypervisor. In this case all calls from dom0 to EFI must
be requested via special hypercall which in turn executes relevant
EFI code in behalf of dom0.

When dom0 kernel boots it checks for EFI availability on a machine.
If it is detected then artificial EFI system table is filled.
Native EFI callas are replaced by functions which mimics them
by calling relevant hypercall. Later pointer to EFI system table
is passed to standard EFI machinery and it continues EFI subsystem
initialization taking into account that there is no direct access
to EFI boot services, runtime, tables, structures, etc. After that
system runs as usual.

This patch is based on Jan Beulich and Tang Liang work.
