Please pull.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Two bug fixes for UEFI:
- don't complain about the Secure Boot status being undetectable on systems
  that are not Secure Boot capable to begin with,
- for stable: fix a panic when booting Fedora's 32-bit ARM kernel in UEFI mode,
  caused by an unexpected interaction with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y.

#1590579 — [PATCH 2/2] efi: arm: Fix boot crash with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y

In reply to#1590577
On ARM and arm64, we use a dedicated mm_struct to map the UEFI
Runtime Services regions, which allows us to map those regions
on demand, and in a way that is guaranteed to be compatible
with incoming kernels across kexec.

As it turns out, we don't fully initialize the mm_struct in the
same way as process mm_structs are initialized on fork(), which
results in the following crash on ARM if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK
is enabled:

efi/arm: Fix boot crash with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y

On ARM and arm64, we use a dedicated mm_struct to map the UEFI
Runtime Services regions, which allows us to map those regions
on demand, and in a way that is guaranteed to be compatible
with incoming kernels across kexec.

As it turns out, we don't fully initialize the mm_struct in the
same way as process mm_structs are initialized on fork(), which
results in the following crash on ARM if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
is enabled:

  ...
  EFI Variables Facility v0.08 2004-May-17
  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
  [...]
  Process swapper/0 (pid: 1)
  ...
  __memzero()
  check_and_switch_context()
  virt_efi_get_next_variable()
  efivar_init()
  efivars_sysfs_init()
  do_one_initcall()
  ...

This is due to a missing call to mm_init_cpumask(), so add it.
