I would prefer to keep initramfs-framework-setup-live/install-efi as
arch-specific and only make initramfs-framework itself allarch. It's
just a gut feeling about the (minor) advantage of not having to rebuild
these two small recipes vs. the additional complexity of the layer.conf
and having to keep that up-to-date.
