efi/arm64: Clean EFI stub exit code from cache instead of avoiding it
Commit 9f922377 ("efi/libstub/arm: Make efi_entry() an ordinary PE/COFF entrypoint") modified the handover code written in assembler, and for maintainability, aligned the logic with the logic used in the 32-bit ARM version, which is to avoid cache maintenance on the remaining instructions in the subroutine that will be executed with the MMU and caches off, and instead, branch into the relocated copy of the kernel image. However, this assumes that this copy is executable, and this means we expect EFI_LOADER_DATA regions to be executable as well, which is not a reasonable assumption to make, even if this is true for most UEFI implementations today. So change this back, and add a __clean_dcache_area_poc() call to cover the remaining code in the subroutine. While at it, switch the other call site over to __clean_dcache_area_poc() as well, and clean up the terminology in comments to avoid using 'flush' in the context of cache maintenance. Also, let's switch to the new style asm annotations.
