Hi, Matt

randconfig build robot reports several problems:
1. sparse warnings which should be fixed by the early_memremap patches
2. ksysfs.c building fails because of lack include <asm/io.h>
3. parse_efi_setup is called in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c, but if it will
   faill in case withoug CONFIG_EFI.

Here is the fix for 2. and 3, please take a look. I'm not sure if I
should resend the patches or leave them to you.

(Build tested with the configs mentioned in the failure report email.
Tested kexec boot in OVMF/qemu virtual machine)

Thanks a lot~
