This is a fix against the issue that crash dump kernel may hang up
during booting, which can happen on any ACPI-based system with "ACPI
Reclaim Memory."

(kernel messages after panic kicked off kdump)

	Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
	Rebooting in 10 seconds..

(diagnosis)
* This fault is a data abort, alignment fault (ESR=0x96000021)
  during reading out ACPI table.
* Initial ACPI tables are normally stored in system ram and marked as
  "ACPI Reclaim memory" by the firmware.
* After the commit f56ab9a5b73c ("efi/arm: Don't mark ACPI reclaim
  memory as MEMBLOCK_NOMAP"), those regions are differently handled
  as they are "memblock-reserved", without NOMAP bit.
* So they are now excluded from device tree's "usable-memory-range"
  which kexec-tools determines based on a current view of /proc/iomem.
* When crash dump kernel boots up, it tries to accesses ACPI tables by
  mapping them with ioremap(), not ioremap_cache(), in acpi_os_ioremap()
  since they are no longer part of mapped system ram.
* Given that ACPI accessor/helper functions are compiled in without
  unaligned access support (ACPI_MISALIGNMENT_NOT_SUPPORTED),
  any unaligned access to ACPI tables can cause a fatal panic.

With this patch, acpi_os_ioremap() always honors a memory attribute
provided by the firmware (efi). Hence retaining cacheability in said cases
allows the kernel safe access to ACPI tables.

Please note that arm_enable_runtime_services(), which is renamed to
efi_enter_virtual_mode() due to the similarity to x86's, is now called
earlier before acpi_early_init() since efi_mem_attributes() relies on
efi.memmap being mapped.
