Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The Ubuntu kernel is not currently bootable on various arm64 laptops (HP Envy 
x2, Asus NovaGo, Lenovo Miix 630, Lenovo Yoga C630, Samsung ...) because of EFI 
memory permissions/restrictions. The reason is explained in the commit supplied 
below. 

  [Test Case]
  Install and boot Ubuntu on one of the above arm64 laptops.

  [Fix]
  Committed upstream: 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=4e46c2a956215482418d7b315749fb1b6c6bc224

  [Regression Risk]
  This commit adds support for an optional kernel command line parameter so 
there is minimal to no risk.
