Since commit 33b85447fa61946b ("efi/x86: Drop two near identical versions
of efi_runtime_init()"), we no longer map the EFI runtime services table
before calling SetVirtualAddressMap(), which means we don't need the 1:1
mapped physical address of this table, and so there is no point in passing
the address via EFI setup data on kexec boot.
Note that the kexec tools will still look for this address in sysfs, so
we still need to provide it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
