The method used to work out whether we were booted by EFI firmware or
via a boot loader is broken. Because efi_main() is always executed
when booting from a boot loader we will dereference invalid pointers
either on the stack (CONFIG_X86_32) or contained in %rdx
(CONFIG_X86_64) when searching for an EFI System Table signature.
Instead of dereferencing these invalid system table pointers, add a
new entry point that is only used when booting from EFI firmware, when
we know the pointer arguments will be valid. With this change legacy
boot loaders will no longer execute efi_main(), but will instead skip
EFI stub initialisation completely.
[ hpa: Marking this for urgent/stable since it is a regression when
the option is enabled; without the option the patch has no effect ]
