Chen Yu 12df216c61 x86/boot/e820: Introduce the bootloader provided e820_table_firmware[] table
Add the real e820_tabel_firmware[] that will not be modified by the kernel
or the EFI boot stub under any circumstance.

In addition to that modify the code so that e820_table_firmwarep[] is
exposed via sysfs to represent the real firmware memory layout,
rather than exposing the e820_table_kexec[] table.

This fixes a hibernation bug/warning, which uses e820_table_kexec[] to check
RAM layout consistency across hibernation/resume:

  The suspend kernel:
  [    0.000000] e820: update [mem 0x76671018-0x76679457] usable ==> usable

  The resume kernel:
  [    0.000000] e820: update [mem 0x7666f018-0x76677457] usable ==> usable
  ...
  [   15.752088] PM: Using 3 thread(s) for decompression.
  [   15.752088] PM: Loading and decompressing image data (471870 pages)...
  [   15.764971] Hibernate inconsistent memory map detected!
  [   15.770833] PM: Image mismatch: architecture specific data

Actually it is safe to restore these pages because E820_TYPE_RAM and
E820_TYPE_RESERVED_KERN are treated the same during hibernation, so
the original e820 table provided by the bootloader is used for
hibernation MD5 fingerprint checking.

The side effect is that, this newly introduced variable might increase the
kernel size at compile time.
