Those changes are due to SEAMCALL API change from the TDCALL/VMCALL/SEAMCALL
assembly change patchset.  I'll work internally to make this stable asap (I
tried before but was suggested to sent out to community for feedback).

Also I would appreciate if you could take a look at patch 18/19 (which are
separated small patches for better review) and patch 20 (reset PAMT in kexec).

Thanks in advance!
