To prepare for completely separating the VGA console screen_info from
the one used in EFI/sysfb, rename the vgacon instances and make them
local as much as possible.
ia64 and arm both have confurations with vgacon and efi, but the contents
never overlaps because ia64 has no EFI framebuffer, and arm only has
vga console on legacy platforms without EFI. Renaming these is required
before the EFI screen_info can be moved into drivers/firmware.
The ia64 vga console is actually registered in two places from
setup_arch(), but one of them is wrong, so drop the one in pcdp.c and
fix the one in setup.c to use the correct conditional.
x86 has to keep them together, as the boot protocol is used to switch
between VGA text console and framebuffer through the screen_info data.

Add the generic plumbing to detect whether or not the runtime code
regions were constructed with BTI/IBT landing pads by the firmware,
permitting the OS to enable enforcement when mapping these regions into
the OS's address space.

Currently, arm64, RISC-V and LoongArch rely on the fact that struct
screen_info can be accessed directly, due to the fact that the EFI stub
and the core kernel are part of the same image. This will change after a
future patch, so let's ensure that the screen_info handling is able to
deal with this, by adopting the arm32 approach of passing it as a
configuration table. While at it, switch to ACPI reclaim memory to hold
the screen_info data, which is more appropriate for this kind of
allocation.

Move some code that is only reachable when IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM) into
the ARM EFI arch code.

This adds support to the kernel proper for booting via UEFI. It shares
most of the code with arm64, so this patch mostly just wires it up for
use with ARM.
Note that this does not include the EFI stub, it is added in a subsequent
patch.
