[PATCH v2 1/1] efi_loader: architecture specific UEFI setup

RISC-V booting currently is based on a per boot stage lottery to determine
the active CPU. The Hart State Management (HSM) SBI extension replaces
this lottery by using a dedicated primary CPU.

Cf. Hart State Management Extension, Extension ID: 0x48534D (HSM)
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-sbi-doc/blob/master/riscv-sbi.adoc

In this scenario the id of the active hart has to be passed from boot stage
to boot stage. Using a UEFI variable would provide an easy implementation.

This patch provides a weak function that is called at the end of the setup
of U-Boot's UEFI sub-system. By overriding this function architecture
specific UEFI variables or configuration tables can be created.
