This patch set is motivated by the discussion[1] regarding
CONFIG_BOOTEFI_BOOTMGR option.
# This version (v5) contains only the remaining commits.
At the end, bootefi.c will be decomposed into two parts, one for
providing the command itself and one for implementing helper functions.
EFI_LOADER will now be available without CONFIG_CMDLINE or specifically
CONFIG_CMD_BOOTEFI if invoked via bootmeth/bootstd.
Then, EFI_LOADER library side will be further split into two options
for fine-grain control:
CONFIG_EFI_BINARY_EXEC: execute UEFI binaries which are to be explicitly
loaded by U-Boot's load commands/functions or other methods
(like a jtag debugger?)
It supports bootmeth_efi as well as "bootefi <addr>|hello"(/"bootm"?).
CONFIG_EFI_BOOTMGR: provide EFI boot manger functionality
It supports bootmeth_efi_mgr as well as "bootefi bootmgr".
As such, We will no longer need CONFIG_EFI_BINARY_EXEC if we want to only
make use of the UEFI boot manger for booting a next stage OS.
