[PATCH v4 15/16] efi: Disable LASS around set_virtual_address_map call

[Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com>]

Of all the EFI runtime services, set_virtual_address_map is the only one
that is called at its lower mapping, which LASS prohibits regardless of
EFLAGS.AC setting. The only way to allow this to happen is to disable
LASS in the CR4 register.

Disable LASS around this low address EFI call.
