[RFC] efi: Let architectures decide the flags that should be saved/restored

From: Julien Thierry
Date: Fri Dec 14 2018 - 09:20:13 EST


Currently, irqflags are saved before calling runtime services and
checked for mismatch on return.

Add a config option to let architectures define a set of flags to be
checked and (if needed) restored when coming back from runtime services.
This allows to use check flags that are not necesarly related to
irqflags.
