[patch 08/12 v4] x86: add xloadflags bit for efi runtime support on kexec

[dyoung at redhat.com]

Hi,
References: <20131125085630.417850406 at dhcp-16-126.nay.redhat.com>
Content-Disposition: inline; filename=08-add-xloadflags-for-kexec-efi-runtime-feature.patch

Old kexec-tools can not load new kernel. The reason is previously kexec-tools
do not fill efi_info in x86 setup header thus efi init fail and switch
to noefi boot. In new kexec-tools it will by default fill efi_info and
pass other efi required infomation to 2nd kernel so kexec kernel efi
initialization will success finally.

To prevent from breaking userspace, add a new xloadflags bit so kexec-tools
will check the flag and switch to old logic.

changelog:
Matt: +&& defined(CONFIG_KEXEC)
HPA: document the flag.
