Linus Torvalds bf2431021c EFI updates for v5.19
- Allow runtime services to be re-enabled at boot on RT kernels.
 - Provide access to secrets injected into the boot image by CoCo
   hypervisors (COnfidential COmputing)
 - Use DXE services on x86 to make the boot image executable after
   relocation, if needed.
 - Prefer mirrored memory for randomized allocations.
 - Only randomize the placement of the kernel image on arm64 if the
   loader has not already done so.
 - Add support for obtaining the boot hartid from EFI on RISC-V.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
