[PATCH -mm] i386 EFI runtime service support : fixes in sync withx86_64 support

From: Huang, Ying
Date: Thu Dec 13 2007 - 22:27:28 EST


This patch fixes several issues of i386 EFI basic runtime service
support according to fixes of x86_64 support.

- Delete efi_rt_lock because it is used during system early boot,
before SMP is initialized.

- Change local_flush_tlb() to __flush_tlb_all() to flush global page
mapping.

- Clean up includes.

- Revise Kconfig description.

- Enable noefi kernel parameter on i386.


This patch has been tested against 2.6.24-rc5-mm1 kernel on Intel
platforms with 32-bit EFI1.10 and UEFI2.0 firmware.
