EDK2 firmware: Adopt the edk2-stable202008 release
Note from Laszlo Ersek [1] while addressing LP#
1852196 [2]:
Consume the following upstream edk2 releases:
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable201908
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable201911
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable202002
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable202005
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable202008
Worth mentioning (in random order):
- various CVE fixes (see [2] and shortlog)
- OpenSSL-1.1.1g
- UEFI HTTPS Boot for ARM/AARCH64
- TPM2 for ARM/AARCH64
- VCPU hotplug with SMI
- support for Linux v5.7+ initrd and mixed mode loading
- Fusion-MPT SCSI driver in OVMF
- VMware PVSCSI driver in OVMF
- PXEv4 / PXEv6 boot possible to disable on the QEMU command line
- SEV-ES support
The IA32 and X64 binaries are now smaller -- the reason is that Laszlo
built them with DevToolSet 9 (gcc-9) on RHEL7, and so this is the first
time they've undergone LTO (with the GCC5 edk2 toolchain settings).
