Kairui Song 5a949b3883 x86/kexec: Add the ACPI NVS region to the ident map
With the recent addition of RSDP parsing in the decompression stage,
a kexec-ed kernel now needs ACPI tables to be covered by the identity
mapping. And in commit

  6bbeb276b7 ("x86/kexec: Add the EFI system tables and ACPI tables to the ident map")

the ACPI tables memory region was added to the ident map.

But some machines have only an ACPI NVS memory region and the ACPI
tables are located in that region. In such case, the kexec-ed kernel
will still fail when trying to access ACPI tables if they're not mapped.

So add the NVS memory region to the ident map as well.

 [ bp: Massage. ]

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
