On efi systems, make pmtimer based tsc calibration the default over the

the pit.

When we exit grub, we don't free all the memory that we allocated earlier
for our heap region. This can cause problems with setups where you try
to descend the boot order using "exit" entries, such as PXE -> HD boot
scenarios.

The reboot function calls machine_fini() and then reboots the system.
Currently it lives in lib/ which means it gets compiled into the
reboot module which lives on the heap.
In a following patch, I want to free the heap on machine_fini()
though, so we would free the memory that the code is running in. That
obviously breaks with smarter UEFI implementations.
So this patch moves it into the core. That way we ensure that all
code running after machine_fini() in the UEFI case is running from
memory that got allocated (and gets deallocated) by the UEFI core.

With upcoming changes to EDK2, allocations of type EFI_LOADER_DATA may
not return regions with execute ability. Since modules are loaded onto
the heap, change the heap allocation type to GRUB_EFI_LOADER_CODE in
order to permit execution on systems with this feature enabled.

grub_efi_allocate_pages Essentially does 2 unrelated things:
* Allocate at fixed address.
* Allocate at any address.
To switch between 2 different functions it uses address == 0 as magic
value which is wrong as 0 is a perfectly valid fixed adress to allocate at.
Expose a new function, grub_efi_allocate_pages_real(), making it possible
to specify allocation type and memory type as supported by the UEFI
AllocatePages boot service.
Make grub_efi_allocate_pages() a consumer of the new function,
maintaining its old functionality.
Also delete some left-around #if 1/#else blocks in the affected
functions.

UEFI 2.6 9.3.6.4 File Path Media Device Path says that Path Name is
"A NULL-terminated Path string including directory and file names".
Strip final NULL from Path Name in each File Path node when constructing
full path. To be on safe side, strip all of them.
Fixes failure chainloading grub from grub, when loaded grub truncates
image path and does not find its grub.cfg.
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1026344
This was triggered by commit ce95549cc54b5d6f494608a7c390dba3aab4fba7;
before it we built Path Name without trailing NULL, and apparently all
other bootloaders use single File Path node, thus not exposing this bug.
According to EABI only STT_FUNC has convention of lowest bit indicating
execution mode. R_THM_{JUMP,CALL}* relocations are assumed to be pointing
to thumb mode unless they use STT_FUNC.
The path returned by grub_efi_net_config has already been stripped for the
directory part extracted from cached bootp packet. We should just return the
result to avoild it be stripped again.
It fixed the problem that grub.efi as NBP image always looking for grub.cfg and
platform directory in upper folder rather than current one it gets loaded while
$prefix is empty. The behavior is inconsistent with other architecture and how
we would expect empty $prefix going to be in general.
The only exception to the general rule of empty $prefix is that when loaded
from platform directory itself, the platform part is stripped thus upper folder
is used for looking up files. It meets the case for how grub-mknetdir lay out
the files under tftp root directory, but also hide away this issue to be
identified as it appears to be just works.
Also fix possible memory leak by moving grub_efi_get_filename() call after
grub_efi_net_config().
We only support FDT files with EFI on arm and arm64 systems, not
on x86. So move the helper that finds a prepopulated FDT UUID
into its own file and only build it for architectures where it
also gets called.

Prevent buffer over-read in grub_machine_mmap_iterate. This was
causing phys_base from being calculated properly. This then
caused the wrong value to be placed in ramdisk_image within
struct linux_hdrs. Which prevented the ramdisk from loading on
boot.

all_video module does not have any code or data and exists solely for
.moddeps section to pull in dependencies. This makes all symbols unneeded.
While in current binutils (last released version as of this commit is 2.26)
``strip --strip-unneeded'' unintentionally adds section symbols for each
existing section, this behavior was considered a bug and changed in commit
14f2c699ddca1e2f706342dffc59a6c7e23e844c to completely strip symbol table
in this case.
Older binutils (verified with 2.17) and some other toolchains (at least
elftoolchain r3223M), both used in FreeBSD, remove symbol table in all_video
as well.
Relax run-time check and do not return error for modules without symbol table.
Add additional checks to module verifier to make sure such modules
a) have non-empty .moddeps section. Without either externally visible symbols
or .moddeps modules are completely useless and should not be built.
b) do not have any relocations.

v2: add run-time check for empty symbol table if relocations are present as
suggested by Vladimir.
Condition was apparently reversed so GRUB assumed all devices were
