[PATCH] x86/efi: Add EFI_PGT_DUMP support for x86_32, kexec and efi=old_map

[Sai Praneeth Prakhya]

From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

EFI_PGT_DUMP, as the name suggests dumps efi page tables to dmesg during
kernel boot. This feature is very useful while debugging page
faults/null pointer dereferences to efi related addresses. Presently,
this feature is limited only to x86_64, so let's extend it to other efi
configurations like kexec kernel, efi=old_map and to x86_32 as well.
This doesn't effect normal boot path because this config option should
be used only for debug purposes.

You can call that only once at the end of efi_enter_virtual_mode()
instead of adding it here and leaving it in __efi_enter_virtual_mode().

Thanks for the suggestion Boris,
Sure! will roll out v2 with this change
