Subject: [PATCH 09/18] efi/ia64: use local variable for EFI system table address

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 16 Feb 2020 19:23:25 +0100

The IA64 code never refers to the EFI system table except from
inside the scope of efi_init(). So let's use a local variable
instead of efi.systab, which will be going away soon.
