In order to hand over the framebuffer described by the GOP protocol and discovered by the UEFI stub, make struct screen_info accessible by the stub. This involves allocating a loader data buffer and passing it to the kernel proper via a UEFI Configuration Table, since the UEFI stub executes in the context of the decompressor, and cannot access the kernel's copy of struct screen_info directly.
