Sai Praneeth 3425d934fc efi/x86: Handle page faults occurring while running EFI runtime services
Memory accesses performed by UEFI runtime services should be limited to:
- reading/executing from EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_CODE memory regions
- reading/writing from/to EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA memory regions
- reading/writing by-ref arguments
- reading/writing from/to the stack.

Accesses outside these regions may cause the kernel to hang because the
memory region requested by the firmware isn't mapped in efi_pgd, which
causes a page fault in ring 0 and the kernel fails to handle it, leading
to die(). To save kernel from hanging, add an EFI specific page fault
handler which recovers from such faults by
1. If the efi runtime service is efi_reset_system(), reboot the machine
   through BIOS.
2. If the efi runtime service is _not_ efi_reset_system(), then freeze
   efi_rts_wq and schedule a new process.

The EFI page fault handler offers us two advantages:
1. Avoid potential hangs caused by buggy firmware.
2. Shout loud that the firmware is buggy and hence is not a kernel bug.
