- Simplify and unify initrd loading
- Parse the builtin command line on x86 (if provided)
- Implement printk() support, including support for wide character strings
- Some fixes for issues introduced by the first batch of v5.8 changes
- Fix a missing prototypes warning
- Simplify GDT handling in early mixed mode thunking code
- Some other minor fixes and cleanups
efi/x86: Drop the special GDT for the EFI thunk
Instead of using efi_gdt64 to switch back to 64-bit mode and then
switching to the real boot-time GDT, just switch to the boot-time GDT
directly. The two GDT's are identical other than efi_gdt64 not including
the 32-bit code segment.
