cad27ef27e arm64: efi: split Image code and data into separate PE/COFF sections
To prevent unintended modifications to the kernel text (malicious or
otherwise) while running the EFI stub, describe the kernel image as
two separate sections: a .text section with read-execute permissions,
covering .text, .rodata and .init.text, and a .data section with
read-write permissions, covering .init.data, .data and .bss.

This relies on the firmware to actually take the section permission
flags into account, but this is something that is currently being
implemented in EDK2, which means we will likely start seeing it in
the wild between one and two years from now.

f1eb542f39 arm64: efi: replace open coded constants with symbolic ones
Replace open coded constants with symbolic ones throughout the
Image and the EFI headers. No binary level changes are intended.

effc7b027a arm64: efi: remove pointless dummy .reloc section
The kernel's EFI PE/COFF header contains a dummy .reloc section, and
an explanatory comment that claims that this is required for the EFI
application loader to accept the Image as a relocatable image (i.e.,
one that can be loaded at any offset and fixed up in place)

This was inherited from the x86 implementation, which has elaborate host
tooling to mangle the PE/COFF header post-link time, and which populates
the .reloc section with a single dummy base relocation. On ARM, no such
tooling exists, and the .reloc section remains empty, and is never even
exposed via the BaseRelocationTable directory entry, which is where the
PE/COFF loader looks for it.

The PE/COFF spec is unclear about relocatable images that do not require
any fixups, but the EDK2 implementation, which is the de facto reference
for PE/COFF in the UEFI space, clearly does not care, and explicitly
mentions (in a comment) that relocatable images with no base relocations
are perfectly fine, as long as they don't have the RELOCS_STRIPPED
attribute set (which is not the case for our PE/COFF image)

So simply remove the .reloc section altogether.

f328ba470c arm64: efi: remove forbidden values from the PE/COFF header
Bring the PE/COFF header in line with the PE/COFF spec, by setting
NumberOfSymbols to 0, and removing the section alignment flags.

In preparation of yet another round of modifications to the PE/COFF
header, macroize it and move the definition into a separate source
