[Fedora 17/19] bootparam: Pass acpi_rsdp pointer in bootparam

[Vivek Goyal]

Currently kexec does not enables EFI and its tables in second kernel. Hence
acpi rsdp root pointer is passed on command line. But secureboot does not trust
acpi_rsdp on command line as kernel can execute some of the code as retrieved
by following acpi_rsdp and root can modify command line. So in secureboot
mode we ignore acpi_rsdp on command line.

Start passing it in bootparams for the time being. kexec-tools will prepare
the bootparams and put acpi_rsdp pointer there.

Peter Jones suggested that scan all ACPI memory for acpi_rsdp if EFI is
not enabled. This probably is a better fix and most likely this patch will
change and adopt that approach down the line.

In fact if we figure out how to make UEFI run time calls in second kernel,
we will not need acpi_rsdp at all.
