x86/kexec: Copy ACPI root pointer address from config table
[ Upstream commit e00ac9e5afb5d80c0168ec88d8e8662a54af8249 ]
Dave reports that kexec may fail when the first kernel boots via the EFI
stub but without EFI runtime services, as in that case, the RSDP address
field in struct bootparams is never assigned. Kexec copies this value
into the version of struct bootparams that it provides to the incoming
kernel, which may have no other means to locate the ACPI root pointer.
So take the value from the EFI config tables if no root pointer has been
set in the first kernel's struct bootparams.
Fixes: a1b87d54f4e4 ("x86/efistub: Avoid legacy decompressor when doing EFI boot")
