This series came from part of the work of removing duplications between
boot code and rewriting part of code from assembly to C.
First 2 patches rework BIOS/PVH paths to reuse some code.
Third patch rewrites EFI code in pure C.
Changes since v1, more details in specific commits:
- style updates;
- comments and descriptions improvements;
- other improvements.
Changes since v2:
- rebased on master, resolved conflicts;
- add comment on trampoline section.
Changes since v3:
- changed new function name;
- declare efi_multiboot2 in a separate header;
- distinguish entry point from using magic number;
- other minor changes (see commens in commits).
