Subject: efi/libstub/arm64: Use hidden attribute for struct screen_info reference
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>
commit 760b61d76da6d6a99eb245ab61abf71ca5415cea upstream.
To prevent the compiler from emitting absolute references to screen_info
when building position independent code, redeclare the symbol with hidden
visibility.
