For historical reasons, the primary entry routine living somewhere in
the inittext section is called stext(), which is confusing, given that
there is also a section marker called _stext which lives at a fixed
offset in the image (either 64 or 4096 bytes, depending on whether
CONFIG_EFI is enabled)
Let's rename stext to primary_entry(), which is a better description
and reflects the secondary_entry() routine that already exists for
SMP boot.

Commit 9f9223778 ("efi/libstub/arm: Make efi_entry() an ordinary PE/COFF
entrypoint") modified the handover code written in assembler, and for
maintainability, aligned the logic with the logic used in the 32-bit ARM
version, which is to avoid cache maintenance on the remaining instructions
in the subroutine that will be executed with the MMU and caches off, and
instead, branch into the relocated copy of the kernel image.
However, this assumes that this copy is executable, and this means we
expect EFI_LOADER_DATA regions to be executable as well, which is not
a reasonable assumption to make, even if this is true for most UEFI
implementations today.
So change this back, and add a __clean_dcache_area_poc() call to cover
the remaining code in the subroutine. While at it, switch the other
call site over to __clean_dcache_area_poc() as well, and clean up the
terminology in comments to avoid using 'flush' in the context of cache
maintenance. Also, let's switch to the new style asm annotations.

We currently parse the command non-destructively, to avoid having to
allocate memory for a copy before passing it to the standard parsing
routines that are used by the core kernel, and which modify the input
to delineate the parsed tokens with NUL characters.
Instead, we call strstr() and strncmp() to go over the input multiple
times, and match prefixes rather than tokens, which implies that we
would match, e.g., 'nokaslrfoo' in the stub and disable KASLR, while
the kernel would disregard the option and run with KASLR enabled.
In order to avoid having to reason about whether and how this behavior
may be abused, let's clean up the parsing routines, and rebuild them
on top of the existing helpers.

Expose efi_entry() as the PE/COFF entrypoint directly, instead of
jumping into a wrapper that fiddles with stack buffers and other
stuff that the compiler is much better at. The only reason this
code exists is to obtain a pointer to the base of the image, but
we can get the same value from the loaded_image protocol, which
we already need for other reasons anyway.
Update the return type as well, to make it consistent with what
is required for a PE/COFF executable entrypoint.

It seems that LLVM's linker does not correctly handle variable assignments
involving section positions that are updated during the SECTIONS
parsing. Commit aa69fb62bea1 ("arm64/efi: Mark __efistub_stext_offset as
an absolute symbol explicitly") ran into this too, but found a different
workaround.
However, this was not enough, as other variables were also miscalculated
which manifested as boot failures under UEFI where __efistub__end was
not taking the correct _end value (they should be the same):
$ ld.lld -EL -maarch64elf --no-undefined -X -shared \
-Bsymbolic -z notext -z norelro --no-apply-dynamic-relocs \
-o vmlinux.lld -T poc.lds --whole-archive vmlinux.o && \
readelf -Ws vmlinux.lld | egrep '\b(__efistub_|)_end\b'
368272: ffff000002218000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL HIDDEN 38 __efistub__end
368322: ffff000012318000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 38 _end
$ aarch64-linux-gnu-ld.bfd -EL -maarch64elf --no-undefined -X -shared \
-Bsymbolic -z notext -z norelro --no-apply-dynamic-relocs \
-o vmlinux.bfd -T poc.lds --whole-archive vmlinux.o && \
readelf -Ws vmlinux.bfd | egrep '\b(__efistub_|)_end\b'
338124: ffff000012318000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT ABS __efistub__end
383812: ffff000012318000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 15325 _end
To work around this, all of the __efistub_-prefixed variable assignments
need to be moved after the linker script's SECTIONS entry. As it turns
out, this also solves the problem fixed in commit aa69fb62bea1, so those
changes are reverted here.
