Yifan Liu d33c76f701 hv: quirks: SMBIOS passthrough for prelaunched-VM
This feature is guarded under config CONFIG_SECURITY_VM_FIXUP, which
by default should be disabled.

This patch passthrough native SMBIOS information to prelaunched VM.
SMBIOS table contains a small entry point structure and a table, of which
the entry point structure will be put in 0xf0000-0xfffff region in guest
address space, and the table will be put in the ACPI_NVS region in guest
address space.

v2 -> v3:
uuid_is_equal moved to util.h as inline API
result -> pVendortable, in function efi_search_guid
recalc_checksum -> generate_checksum
efi_search_smbios -> efi_search_smbios_eps
scan_smbios_eps -> mem_search_smbios_eps
EFI GUID definition kept

Tracked-On: #6320

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
