Ard Biesheuvel 8819ba3966 efi/arm: Drop unnecessary references to efi.systab
Instead of populating efi.systab very early during efi_init() with
a mapping that is released again before the function exits, use a
local variable here. Now that we use efi.runtime to access the runtime
services table, this removes the only reference efi.systab, so there is
no need to populate it anymore, or discover its virtually remapped
address. So drop the references entirely.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
