The Kconfig for this driver is currently:
config ACPI_BGRT
bool "Boottime Graphics Resource Table support"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove all modular references, so that when reading the driver
there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
was (or is now) contained at the top of the file in the comments.

No need to call sysfs_bin_attr_init, as the attribute is not dynamically
created. Also, we renamed the attribute, so this one isn't even valid
anymore.

Attribute groups now can handle binary sysfs attributes, so clean up the
code here by using a binary attribute array. This saves us the extra
call to create the binary attribute at saves 6 lines overall.

I can take this in my driver-core tree if someone from ACPI acks it,
otherwise, feel free to take it through the ACPI trees instead, just
let me know.

The ACPI BGRT driver accesses the BIOS logo image when it initializes.
However, ACPI 5.0 (which introduces the BGRT) recommends putting the
logo image in EFI boot services memory, so that the OS can reclaim that
memory. Production systems follow this recommendation, breaking the
ACPI BGRT driver.
Move the bulk of the BGRT code to run during a new EFI late
initialization phase, which occurs after switching EFI to virtual mode,
and after initializing ACPI, but before freeing boot services memory.
Copy the BIOS logo image to kernel memory at that point, and make it
accessible to the BGRT driver. Rework the existing ACPI BGRT driver to
act as a simple wrapper exposing that image (and the properties from the
BGRT) via sysfs.

The ACPI BGRT driver uses ioremap() and memcpy_fromio(), which means
it needs to #include <linux/io.h>.
[ hpa: This was hidden because <asm/acpi.h> used to include <asm/trampoline.h>,
which then included <asm/io.h> ]

ACPI 5.0 adds the BGRT, a table that contains a pointer to the firmware
boot splash and associated metadata. This simple driver exposes it via
/sys/firmware/acpi in order to allow bootsplash applications to draw their
splash around the firmware image and reduce the number of jarring graphical
transitions during boot.
