[PATCH 1/1] riscv: efi: Set NX compat flag in PE/COFF header

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

The IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_NX_COMPAT informs the firmware that the
EFI binary does not rely on pages that are both executable and
writable.

The flag is used by some distro versions of GRUB to decide if the EFI
binary may be executed.

As the Linux kernel neither has RWX sections nor needs RWX pages for
relocation we should set the flag.
