Subject: [PATCH v14 1/5] x86/boot: Introduce get_acpi_rsdp() to parse RSDP in cmdline from KEXEC

Memory information in SRAT is necessary to fix the conflict between
KASLR and memory-hotremove.

ACPI SRAT (System/Static Resource Affinity Table) shows the details
about memory ranges, including ranges of memory provided by hot-added
memory devices. SRAT is introduced by Root System Description
Pointer(RSDP), so RSDP should be found firstly.

When booting form KEXEC/EFI/BIOS, the methods to find RSDP
are different. When booting from KEXEC, 'acpi_rsdp' may have been
added to cmdline, so parse cmdline to find RSDP.
