Alexander Graf 51735ae0ea efi_loader: Add bounce buffer support
Some hardware that is supported by U-Boot can not handle DMA above 32bits.
For these systems, we need to come up with a way to expose the disk interface
in a safe way.

This patch implements EFI specific bounce buffers. For non-EFI cases, this
apparently was no issue so far, since we can just define our environment
variables conveniently.

default y
help
Select this option if you want to run EFI applications (like grub2)
on top of U-Boot. If this option is enabled, U-Boot will expose EFI
interfaces to a loaded EFI application, enabling it to reuse U-Boot's
device drivers.
config EFI_LOADER_BOUNCE_BUFFER
bool "EFI Applications use bounce buffers for DMA operations"
depends on EFI_LOADER && ARM64
default n
help
Some hardware does not support DMA to full 64bit addresses. For this
hardware we can create a bounce buffer so that payloads don't have to
worry about platform details.
