Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: sync up probe_roms() with i386

Hi Andrew.
This syncs up the x86_64 probe_roms() with the i386 version as just
submitted.
===
Sync up with i386. Specifically, be careful about touching the
legacy ROMs; in virtualized environments they may not be mapped.
Crosscompiled, but not booted due to lack of hardware.
Signed-off-by: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com>
