[RFC,0/5] efi/x86: Avoid corrupted config tables under Xen

This is an alternate approach to addressing the issue that Demi Marie is
attempting to fix in [0] (i.e., ESRT config table exposed to a x86 dom0
is corrupted because it resides in boot services memory as per the EFI
spec, where it gets corrupted by Xen). My main objection to that approach
is that it needs Xen-specific fixes in multiple different places, but we
still end up only fixing the ESRT case specifically.

So instead, I am proposing this series as a more generic way to handle
configuration tables that reside in boot services memory, and confining
the Xen specific logic to the Xen EFI glue code.

Given that EFI boot without a memory map is only permitted on x86 and
only when doing Xen boot, let's clear up some inconsistencies there
first so we can set the EFI_PARAVIRT flag on all architectures that do
pseudo-EFI boot straight into the core kernel (i.e., without going
through the stub). This moves a good chunk of EFI memory map
manipulation code into the x86 arch tree, where it arguably belongs as
no other architectures rely on it. This is implemented in patches 1 - 3.

Patch #4 updates the configuration table iteration logic so that only
ACPI and SMBIOS tables are exposed automatically when EFI_PARAVIRT is
set, and other config tables only if they reside in a memory region of a
EFI memory type that is guaranteed to be preserved. This effectively
hides the ESRT, but also the memory attributes table and the runtime
properties (and potentially others) when doing Xen dom0 boot unless they
have been moved out of EFI boot services memory.

The final patch relaxes the ESRT sanity check so that the ESRT is parsed
and exposed even if EFI_MEMMAP is not set, which is the case with Xen
dom0 on x86. If additional memory map checks are required in this code
path, the best way to achieve this is for Xen to expose a EFI memory map
on x86 just like it does on other architectures that support Xen (ARM
and arm64)
