[PATCH] efi: Call bootm_disable_interrupts earlier in efi_exit_boot_services

If we look at the path that bootm/booti take when preparing to boot the
OS, we see that as part of (or prior to calling do_bootm_states,
explicitly) the process, bootm_disable_interrupts() is called prior to
announce_and_cleanup() which is where udc_disconnect() /
board_quiesce_devices() / dm_remove_devices_flags() are called from.  In
the EFI path, these are called afterwards.  In efi_exit_boot_services()
however we have been calling bootm_disable_interrupts() after the above
functions, as part of ensuring that we disable interrupts as required
by the spec.  However, bootm_disable_interrupts() is also where we go
and call usb_stop().  While this has been fine before, on the TI J721E
platform this leads us to an exception.  This exception seems likely to
be the case that we're trying to stop devices that we have already
disabled clocks for.  The most direct way to handle this particular
problem is to make EFI behave like the do_bootm_states() process and
ensure we call bootm_disable_interrupts() prior to ending up in
usb_stop().

First up, as my wording above implies, I'm assuming rather than being
100% confident in why calling usb_stop() is leading to the exception I
get.  It's this call:
                /* Locate root hub device */
                device_find_first_child(bus, &rh);
that causes the exception.  This board is also a little odd in that,
borrowing from dm_dump_all():
 nop           5  [   ]   cdns-ti               |   |-- cdns-usb at 4114000
 usb           0  [ + ]   cdns-usb3-host        |   |   `-- usb at 6400000
 usb_hub       0  [ + ]   usb_hub               |   |       `-- usb_hub
 usb_hub       1  [ + ]   usb_hub               |   |           `-- usb_hub
 usb_mass_s    0  [ + ]   usb_mass_storage      |   |               `-- usb_mass_storage
 blk           2  [ + ]   usb_storage_blk       |   |                   `-- usb_mass_storage.lun0
and physically, only that mass storage device is attached to the board
itself, the rest is on-device.

Second, while talking with Ilias he's said he'll see if there can be
some common function / abstractions done here between the
do_bootm_states() code and the efi_exit_boot_services() code as this
change shows other common code that's in arch/*/lib/bootm.c.  The call
to bootm_disable_interrupts() however I have tried to make clear is not
handled in a common way as bootm/booti spell out the call as they don't
use the BOOTM_STATE_LOADOS flag.

Third, I'm not 100% sure that 3d71c81a9bb0 is still the correct / ideal
thing to be doing, and that's what usb_stop() is all about, at that
point in the boot cycle.  It might well be the kind of quirk that we
have handled now, via DM.

Fourth, I really would like to figure out a fix here appropriate to
v2022.01 and I think this is the least invasive approach.
