Some x86 systems might be capable of running a 64-bit Linux kernel but
only use a 32-bit EFI (e.g. Intel Bay Trail systems). It's useful for
grub-install to be able to recognise such systems, to set the default
x86 platform correctly.
To allow grub-install to know the size of the firmware rather than
just the size of the kernel, there is now an extra EFI sysfs file to
describe the underlying firmware. Read that if possible, otherwise
fall back to the kernel type as before.

Use the new thumb_get_instruction_word/thumb_set_instruction_word
helpers throughout.
Style cleanup (missing spaces).
Move Thumb MOVW/MOVT handlers into Thumb relocation section of file.
This restrict ARP handling to MAC and IP addresses but in practice we need
only this case anyway and other cases are very rar if exist at all. It makes
code much simpler and less error-prone.
_BSD_SOURCE was added to allow the use of DT_DIR, but that was removed
in e768b77068. While adding
_DEFAULT_SOURCE as well works around problems with current glibc,
neither is in fact needed nowadays.
argp_help attempts to translate empty string, which results in printing
meta information about translation, like in

Update gnulib/argp-help.c to the current version which fixes this
(commit b9bfe78424b871f5b92e5ee9e7d21ef951a6801d).
canonicalize_file_name clashed with gnulib function. Additionally
it was declared in 2 places: emu/misc.h and util/misc.h. Added
grub_ prefix and removed second declaration.
libgcc for boot environment isn't always present and compatible.
libgcc is often absent if endianness or bit-size at boot is different
from running OS.
libgcc may use optimised opcodes that aren't available on boot time.
So instead of relying on libgcc shipped with the compiler, supply
the functions in GRUB directly.
Tests are present to ensure that those replacement functions behave the
way compiler expects them to.
All current ciphers have blocks which are power of 2 and it's
unlikely to change. Other block length would be tricky to handle anyway.
This restriction allows avoiding extra divisions.
Add -msoft-float alongside clang arguments to specify ABI.
Specify ABI in asm files explicitly.
This trigers asm warning due to gcc failing to propagate -msoft-float
but it's tolerable.
Previously we supplied only unsigned divisions on platforms that need software
division.
Yet compiler may itself use a signed division. A typical example would be a
difference between 2 pointers which involves division by object size.
