With this series the UEFI SCT fails in the MemoryAllocationServicesTest
on arm64 when running on sandbox64_defconfig:

UEFI image [0x00000000182e5000:0x00000000183b7fff] pc=0x99d4out of
memory 'c=0x99d4
UEFI image [0x0000000014139000:0x000000001416dfff]out of memory
'0x0000000014139000:0x000000001416dfff]
UEFI image [0x00000000140fc000:0x0000000014100fff]out of memory
'0x00000000140fc000:0x0000000014100fff]

Without this series the test runs fine.

Some guidance for running the SCT is provided in
