Subject: [PATCH 06/10] efi.h: Add allocation types for boottime->allocate_pages()

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@...el.com>

Add the allocation types detailed in section 6.2 - "AllocatePages()"
of the UEFI 2.3 specification. These definitions will be used by the
x86 EFI boot stub which needs to allocate memory during boot.
