Ard Biesheuvel b9676962cd efi/arm64: Clean EFI stub exit code from cache instead of avoiding it
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.
