efi/x86: Simplify 64-bit EFI firmware call wrapper
The efi_call() wrapper used to invoke EFI runtime services serves
a number of purposes:
- realign the stack to 16 bytes
- preserve FP and CR0 register state
- translate from SysV to MS calling convention.
Preserving CR0.TS is no longer necessary in Linux, and preserving the
FP register state is also redundant in most cases, since efi_call() is
almost always used from within the scope of a pair of kernel_fpu_begin()/
kernel_fpu_end() calls, with the exception of the early call to
SetVirtualAddressMap() and the SGI UV support code.
So let's add a pair of kernel_fpu_begin()/_end() calls there as well,
and remove the unnecessary code from the assembly implementation of
efi_call(), and only keep the pieces that deal with the stack
alignment and the ABI translation.
