Provide EFI support for SOS could cause weird issues. For example, hypervisor
works based on E820 table whereras it's possible that the memory map from EFI
table is not aligned with E820 table. The SOS kernel kaslr will try to find the
random address for extracted kernel image in EFI table first. So it's possible
that none-RAM in E820 is picked for extracted kernel image. This will make
kernel boot fail.
This patch removes EFI support for SOS by not passing struct boot_efi_info to
SOS kernel zeropage, and reserve a memory to store RSDP table for SOS and pass
the RSDP address to SOS kernel zeropage for SOS to locate ACPI table.
The patch requires SOS kernel version be high than 4.20, otherwise the kernel
might fail to find the RSDP.

In this way, all multiboot standard data structure could be found in
multiboot_std.h. The multiboot_priv.h stores all private definitions
and multiboot.h is the only public API header file.

This is done by adding the MAX_MMAP_ENTRIES macro in multiboot.h.
This macro has to be sync-ed with E820_MAX_ENTRIES manually though.
