Series ARM: simplify handover from UEFI to decompressor | expand

The remaining contents of LC0 are only used after the point in the
decompressor startup code where we enter via 'wont_overwrite'. So
move the loading of the LC0 structure after it. This will allow us
to jump to wont_overwrite directly from the EFI stub, and execute
the decompressor in place at the offset it was loaded by the UEFI
firmware.
