Alexander Graf 92bfc33db9 efi: Free malloc regions on exit
When we exit grub, we don't free all the memory that we allocated earlier
for our heap region. This can cause problems with setups where you try
to descend the boot order using "exit" entries, such as PXE -> HD boot
scenarios.

Alexander Graf 0ba90a7f01 efi: Move grub_reboot() into kernel
The reboot function calls machine_fini() and then reboots the system.
Currently it lives in lib/ which means it gets compiled into the
reboot module which lives on the heap.

In a following patch, I want to free the heap on machine_fini()
though, so we would free the memory that the code is running in. That
obviously breaks with smarter UEFI implementations.

So this patch moves it into the core. That way we ensure that all
code running after machine_fini() in the UEFI case is running from
memory that got allocated (and gets deallocated) by the UEFI core.

Alexander Graf 0d2345774d efi: Move fdt helper into own file
We only support FDT files with EFI on arm and arm64 systems, not
on x86. So move the helper that finds a prepopulated FDT UUID
into its own file and only build it for architectures where it
also gets called.

Alexander Graf e1b099fb69 arm efi: Use fdt from firmware when available
If EFI is nice enough to pass us an FDT using configuration tables on 32bit
ARM, we should really try and make use of it.

Alexander Graf fbca374105 arm64: Move firmware fdt search into global function
Searching for a device tree that EFI passes to us via configuration tables
is nothing architecture specific. Move it into generic code.
