Merge branch 'efi-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this development cycle were:
- Implement EFI dev path parser and other changes to fully support
thunderbolt devices on Apple Macbooks (Lukas Wunner)
- Add RNG seeding via the EFI stub, on ARM/arm64 (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Expose EFI framebuffer configuration to user-space, to improve
tooling (Peter Jones)
- Misc fixes and cleanups (Ivan Hu, Wei Yongjun, Yisheng Xie, Dan
Carpenter, Roy Franz)"
