The new UEFI-like firmware interface (LEFI, i.e. Loongson Unified Firmware Interface) has 3 advantages: 1, Firmware export a physical memory map which is similar to X86's E820 map, so prom_init_memory() will be more elegant that #ifdef clauses can be removed. 2, Firmware export a pci irq routing table, we no longer need pci irq routing fixup in kernel's code. 3, Firmware has a built-in vga bios, and its address is exported, the linux kernel no longer need an embedded blob. With the LEFI interface, Loongson-3A/2G and all their successors can use a unified kernel. All Loongson-based machines support this new interface except 2E/2F series.
