x86/boot changes for v6.17:

 - Implement support for embedding EFI SBAT data (Secure Boot
   Advanced Targeting: a secure boot image revocation facility)
   on x86. (Vitaly Kuznetsov)

 - Move the efi_enter_virtual_mode() initialization call
   from the generic init code to x86 init code.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
