That's a first (possibly temporary) step and I think it's fine:

Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

But we need some further tweaking to the way we call efi_init().
Currently it doesn't matter whether Linux booted as an EFI application
or not and efi_init() is always called, causing some pr_err() in
fdt_find_uefi_params(). It's not really an error as we support the same
image booting non-EFI as well.

Can we add another of detecting whether it's an EFI application and
avoid calling efi_init()? I can see x86 sets some efi_loader_signature
string in exit_boot() and checks against it later when calling
efi_init().
