[PULL 7/8] bootdevice: FW_CFG interface for LCHS values

[John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>]

From: Sam Eiderman <shmuel.eiderman@oracle.com>

Using fw_cfg, supply logical CHS values directly from QEMU to the BIOS.

Non-standard logical geometries break under QEMU.

A virtual disk which contains an operating system which depends on
logical geometries (consistent values being reported from BIOS INT13
AH=08) will most likely break under QEMU/SeaBIOS if it has non-standard
logical geometries - for example 56 SPT (sectors per track).
No matter what QEMU will report - SeaBIOS, for large enough disks - will
use LBA translation, which will report 63 SPT instead.

In addition we cannot force SeaBIOS to rely on physical geometries at
all. A virtio-blk-pci virtual disk with 255 phyiscal heads cannot
report more than 16 physical heads when moved to an IDE controller,
since the ATA spec allows a maximum of 16 heads - this is an artifact of
virtualization.

By supplying the logical geometries directly we are able to support such
"exotic" disks.

We serialize this information in a similar way to the "bootorder"
interface.
The new fw_cfg entry is "bios-geometry".
