Commit 06a4b6d0 ("ARM: 8677/1: boot/compressed: fix decompressor header layout for v7-M") fixed an issue in the layout of the header of the compressed kernel image that was caused by the assembler emitting narrow opcodes for 'mov r0, r0', and for this reason, the mnemonic was updated to use the W() macro, which will append the .w suffix (which forces a wide encoding) if required, i.e., when building the kernel in Thumb2 mode. However, this failed to take into account that on Thumb2 kernels built for CPUs that are also ARM capable, the entry point is entered in ARM mode, and so the instructions emitted here will be ARM instructions that only exist in a wide encoding to begin with, which is why the assembler rejects the .w suffix here and aborts the build with the following message: head.S: Assembler messages: head.S:132: Error: width suffixes are invalid in ARM mode -- `mov.w r0,r0' So replace the W(mov) with separate ARM and Thumb2 instructions, where the latter will only be used for THUMB2_ONLY builds.

As reported by Patrice, the header layout of the decompressor is incorrect when building for v7-M. In this case, the __nop macro resolves to 'mov r0, r0', which is emitted as a narrow encoding, resulting in the header data fields to end up at lower offsets than required. Given the variety of targets we need to support with the same code, the startup sequence is a bit of a jumble, and uses instructions and macros whose encoding widths cannot be specified (badr), or only exist in a narrow encoding (bx) So force the use of a wide encoding in __nop, and replace the start sequence with a simple jump to the label marking the start of code, preceded by a Thumb2 mode switch if required (using explicit wide encodings where appropriate). The label itself can be moved to the start of code [where it belongs] due to the larger range of branch instructions as compared to adr instructions.

This patch adds EFI stub support for the ARM Linux kernel. The EFI stub operates similarly to the x86 and arm64 stubs: it is a shim between the EFI firmware and the normal zImage entry point, and sets up the environment that the zImage is expecting. This includes optionally loading the initrd and device tree from the system partition based on the kernel command line.
