kexec/kdump uefi support depends on the 1:1 mapping scheme
in 3.14 kernel but SGI reported that 1:1 mapping does not work on
their UV system. thus there's below commit to switch back to
old ioremap way for sgi uv machines.
So for kexec-tools before we got the 1:1 mapping support on those
machines we should also use old way that means boot 2nd kernel
without uefi.
Tested on a uv1 machine.
Here is the kernel commit to quirk out SGI UV:

x86/efi: Quirk out SGI UV
Alex reported hitting the following BUG after the EFI 1:1 virtual
mapping work was merged,
kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/init_64.c:351!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
Call Trace:

Getting this thing to work with the new mapping scheme would need more
work, so automatically switch to the old memmap layout for SGI UV.
