    efi/arm64: efistub: remove local copy of linux_banner · a55c072d

    The shared efistub code for ARM and arm64 contains a local copy of
    linux_banner, allowing it to be referenced from separate executables
    such as the ARM decompressor. However, this introduces a dependency on
    generated header files, causing unnecessary rebuilds of the stub itself
    and, in case of arm64, vmlinux which contains it.
    
    On arm64, the copy is not actually needed since we can reference the
    original symbol directly, and as it turns out, there may be better ways
    to deal with this for ARM as well, so let's remove it from the shared
    code. If it still needs to be reintroduced for ARM later, it should live
    under arch/arm anyway and not in shared code.
