Since we still need to read systab for nr_tables and do signature
check to determine if it's 32bit or 64bit for kexec-ed kernel,
everything except the address of config_tables are common between
normal boot and kexec boot.

efi_get_rsdp_addr() and kexec_get_rsdp_addr() could be implemented
like this (sorry about the pseudo code):
/* This is also used to check if the kernel is kexec-ed. */
unsigned long efi_get_setup_data_addr(void) {
return the address of efi_setup_data if kexec-ed or 0 if not;
}
acpi_physical_address __efi_get_rsdp_addr(unsigned long config_tables) {
// Do mostly same as the current efi_get_rsdp_addr().
// If config_tables is non-zero, use it instead of systab->tables.
}
acpi_physical_address efi_get_rsdp_addr(void) {
if (efi_get_setup_data_addr())
return 0;
return __efi_get_rsdp_addr(0);
}
acpi_physical_address kexec_get_rsdp_addr(void) {
esd = (struct efi_setup_data *) efi_get_setup_data_addr();
if (esd && esd->tables)
return __efi_get_rsdp_addr((unsigned long) esd->tables);
return 0;
}
I don't think it looks nice.. Does this match what you envisage?
