Maxin B. John d2554f50df firmware: google: fix gsmi.c build warning
Use min_t() macro instead of min() to fix a build warning:

  CC      drivers/firmware/google/gsmi.o
drivers/firmware/google/gsmi.c: In function ‘gsmi_get_variable’:
drivers/firmware/google/gsmi.c:348: warning: comparison of distinct
pointer types lacks a cast

Paul Gortmaker afd605f683 drivers/firmware: Add module.h to google/gsmi.c
This file really needs the full module.h header file present, but
was just getting it implicitly before.  Fix it up in advance so we
avoid build failures once the cleanup commit is present.

Axel Lin 1e4de81653 firmware: gsmi: remove sysfs entries when unload the module
This patch removes sysfs entries in gsmi_exit() and gsmi_init() error path.

Also move the driver successfully loaded message to the end of gsmi_init()
and return proper error if register_efivars() fails.

Randy Dunlap 5daf538a03 firmware: fix GOOGLE_SMI kconfig dependency warning
Is it meaningful/useful to enable EFI_VARS but not EFI?
That's what GOOGLE_SMI does.  Make it enable EFI also.

Fixes this kconfig dependency warning:

warning: (GOOGLE_SMI) selects EFI_VARS which has unmet direct dependencies (EFI)

Mike Waychison a1d9a09ae8 Introduce CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE
In order to keep Google's firmware drivers organized amongst themselves,
all Google firmware drivers are gated on CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE=y, which
defaults to 'n' in the kernel build.

Mike Waychison e561bc4592 driver: Google Memory Console
This patch introduces the 'memconsole' driver.

Our firmware gives us access to an in-memory log of the firmware's
output.   This gives us visibility in a data-center of headless machines
as to what the firmware is doing.

The memory console is found by the driver by finding a header block in
the EBDA.  The buffer is then copied out, and is exported to userland in
the file /sys/firmware/log.

Mike Waychison 74c5b31c66 driver: Google EFI SMI
The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for
accessing hardware.

Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information.
Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their
op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used.

This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command
outlined in the FADT table.  Three protocols are used due to various
limitations over time, but all are included herein.

This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either
a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM
strings of the FADT ACPI table.  This logic happens in
gsmi_system_valid().
