As part of moving the parsing of command line arguments to do_bootefi()
call efi_install_fdt() with the address of the device tree instead of a

Why check for fdt_addr != 0 here? Since you do the parsing outside of
this function now, just make 0 a valid pointer and check for the
validity outside of this function.

fdt_addr == 0 signals that U-Boot's internal device tree shall be used
for the UEFI sub-system.

Your suggested change would drop the capability to use the internal
device tree. Why would you want to do so?


Mostly because I didn't look at the bigger picture, sorry :).
Looking at all the options, your patch is probably the best solution. Sorry for the fuss.
