efi/arm: Fix boot crash with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
commit d1eb9814 upstream. On ARM and arm64, we use a dedicated mm_struct to map the UEFI Runtime Services regions, which allows us to map those regions on demand, and in a way that is guaranteed to be compatible with incoming kernels across kexec. As it turns out, we don't fully initialize the mm_struct in the same way as process mm_structs are initialized on fork(), which results in the following crash on ARM if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y is enabled: ... EFI Variables Facility v0.08 2004-May-17 Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 [...] Process swapper/0 (pid: 1) ... __memzero() check_and_switch_context() virt_efi_get_next_variable() efivar_init() efivars_sysfs_init() do_one_initcall() ... This is due to a missing call to mm_init_cpumask(), so add it.
