Work around a quirk in a few old (2011-ish) UEFI implementations, where
a call to `GetNextVariableName` with a buffer size larger than 512 bytes
will always return EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER.
There is some lore around EFI variable names being up to 1024 bytes in
size, but this has no basis in the UEFI specification, and the upper
bounds are typically platform specific, and apply to the entire variable
(name plus payload).
Given that Linux does not permit creating files with names longer than
NAME_MAX (255) bytes, 512 bytes (== 256 UTF-16 characters) is a
reasonable limit.

The .compat section is a dummy PE section that contains the address of
the 32-bit entrypoint of the 64-bit kernel image if it is bootable from
32-bit firmware (i.e., CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y)
This section is only 8 bytes in size and is only referenced from the
loader, and so it is placed at the end of the memory view of the image,
to avoid the need for padding it to 4k, which is required for sections
appearing in the middle of the image.
Unfortunately, this violates the PE/COFF spec, and even if most EFI
loaders will work correctly (including the Tianocore reference
implementation), PE loaders do exist that reject such images, on the
basis that both the file and memory views of the file contents should be
described by the section headers in a monotonically increasing manner
without leaving any gaps.
So reorganize the sections to avoid this issue. This results in a slight
padding overhead (< 4k) which can be avoided if desired by disabling
CONFIG_EFI_MIXED (which is only needed in rare cases these days)

The EFI stub's kernel placement logic randomizes the physical placement
of the kernel by taking all available memory into account, and picking a
region at random, based on a random seed.
When KASLR is disabled, this seed is set to 0x0, and this results in the
lowest available region of memory to be selected for loading the kernel,
even if this is below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR. Some of this memory is
typically reserved for the GFP_DMA region, to accommodate masters that
can only access the first 16 MiB of system memory.
Even if such devices are rare these days, we may still end up with a
warning in the kernel log, as reported by Tom:
swapper/0: page allocation failure: order:10, mode:0xcc1(GFP_KERNEL|GFP_DMA), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0
Fix this by tweaking the random allocation logic to accept a low bound
on the placement, and set it to LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR.

The recently introduced EFI memory attributes protocol should be used
if it exists to ensure that the memory allocation created for the kernel
permits execution. This is needed for compatibility with tightened
requirements related to Windows logo certification for x86 PCs.
Currently, we simply strip the execute protect (XP) attribute from the
entire range, but this might be rejected under some firmware security
policies, and so in a subsequent patch, this will be changed to only
strip XP from the executable region that runs early, and make it
read-only (RO) as well.
In order to catch any issues early, ensure that the memory attribute
protocol works as intended, and give up if it produces spurious errors.
Note that the DXE services based fallback was always based on best
effort, so don't propagate any errors returned by that API.

The EFI stub makefile contains logic to ensure that the objects that
make up the stub do not contain relocations that require runtime fixups
(typically to account for the runtime load address of the executable)
On RISC-V, we also avoid GP based relocations, as they require that GP
is assigned the correct base in the startup code, which is not
implemented in the EFI stub.
So add these relocation types to the grep expression that is used to
carry out this check.

The cflags for the RISC-V efistub were missing -mno-relax, thus were
under the risk that the compiler could use GP-relative addressing. That
happened for _edata with binutils-2.41 and kernel 6.1, causing the
relocation to fail due to an invalid kernel_size in handle_kernel_image.
It was not yet observed with newer versions, but that may just be luck.

bcachefs btree nodes are big - typically 256k - and btree roots are
pinned in memory. As we're now up to 18 btrees, we now have significant
memory overhead in mostly empty btree roots.
And in the future we're going to start enforcing that certain btree node
boundaries exist, to solve lock contention issues - analagous to XFS's
AGIs.
Thus, we need to start allocating smaller btree node buffers when we
can. This patch changes code that refers to the filesystem constant
c->opts.btree_node_size to refer to the btree node buffer size -
btree_buf_bytes() - where appropriate.
