From: Sylvain Chouleur <sylvain.chouleur@xxxxxxxxx>
This patch adds an implementation of EFI runtime services wappers which
allow interrupts and preemption during execution of BIOS code.
It's needed by Broxton platform which requires the OS to do the write
of the non volatile variables. To do that, the OS will receive an
interrupt coming from the firmware to notify that it must write the
data.
BIOS code must be executed using a specific PGD. This is currently
done by efi_call() which force value of CR3 before calling BIOS and
restore previous value after.
We use a dedicated kthread which will execute all interruptible runtime
services. This efi_kthread is special because it has it's own mm_struct
whereas kthread should not have one. This mm_struct contains the EFI PGD
so the scheduler will load it before running any BIOS code.
Obviously, an interruptible runtime service must never be called from an
interrupt context. EFI pstore is the only use case here, that's why we
require it to be disabled when activating interruptible runtime services.
