This patch adds basic runtime services support for EFI x86_64 system. The
main file of the patch is the addition of efi_64.c for x86_64. This file is
modeled after the EFI IA32 avatar. EFI runtime services initialization are
implemented in efi_64.c. Some x86_64 specifics are worth noting here. On
x86_64, parameters passed to EFI firmware services need to follow the EFI
calling convention. For this purpose, a set of functions named efi_call<x>
(<x> is the number of parameters) are implemented. EFI function calls are
wrapped before calling the firmware service. The duplicated code between
efi_32.c and efi_64.c is placed in efi.c to remove them from efi_32.c.

To actually write a bootloader (or, say, the lguest launcher)
currently requires duplication of these structures. Making them
includable from userspace is much nicer.
We merge the common userspace-required definitions of e820_32/64.h
into e820.h for export.

Updates for version 2.07 of the boot protocol. This includes:
load_flags.KEEP_SEGMENTS- flag to request/inhibit segment reloads
hardware_subarch - what subarchitecture we're booting under
hardware_subarch_data - per-architecture data
The intention of these changes is to make booting a paravirtualized
kernel work via the normal Linux boot protocol.

Instead of using magic macros for boot_params access, simply use the
boot_params structure.
