Now we setup_data is reserved via memblock and e820 and different
handlers have different ways, and it is confusing.
1. SETUP_E820_EXT: is consumed early and will not copy or access again.
	have memory wasted.
2. SETUP_EFI: is accessed via ioremap every time at early stage.
	have memory wasted.
3. SETUP_DTB: is copied locally.
	have memory wasted.
4. SETUP_PCI: is accessed via ioremap for every pci devices, even run-time.
5. SETUP_KASLR: is accessed early, will not copy or access again.
	have memory wasted.

Also setup_data is exported to debugfs for debug purpose.

Here will convert to let every handler to decide how to handle it.
and will not reserve the setup_data generally, so will not
waste memory and also make memblock/e820 keep page aligned.
1. not touch E820 anymore.
2. copy SETUP_EFI to __initdata variable and access it without ioremap.
3. SETUP_DTB: reserver and copy to local and free.
4. SETUP_PCI: reverve localy and convert to list, to avoid keeping ioremap.
5. SETUP_KASLR: fix accessing kaslr_enabled accessing...
6. export SETUP_PCI via sysfs.

Those patches could be applied on top of tip/x86/urgent with SETUP_KASLR
support.

Yinghai Lu (8):
  x86, kaslr: get kaslr_enabled back correctly
  x86: Kill E820_RESERVED_KERN
  x86, efi: copy SETUP_EFI data and access directly
  x86, of: let add_dtb reserve by itself
  x86, boot: Add add_pci handler for SETUP_PCI
  x86: kill not used setup_data handling code
  x86, pci: convert SETUP_PCI data to list
  x86, pci: export SETUP_PCI data via sysfs
