[pcbios] Print INT 15,E820 extended attributes, if present
The ACPI specification defines an additional 4-byte field at offset 20
for an E820 memory map entry. This field is presumably optional,
since generally E820 gets given only a 20-byte buffer to fill.
However, the bits of this optional field are defined as:
bit 0 : region is enabled
bit 1 : region is non-volatile memory rather than RAM
so it seems as though callers that pass in only a 20-byte buffer may
be missing out on some rather important information.
