Standardized firmware isn't something that's specified in the ISA, is it? It's just shitty phone manufacturers.

Asus had some x86 phones a few years back. I haven't dug into them, but I doubt they had a full bios/efi.

pine64 arm devices have u-boot, while a bootloader does fullfil a subset of the uefi spec.
