Mark all files used in a standard build of bin-x86_64-efi/snponly.efi
as permitted for UEFI Secure Boot. These files represent the core
functionality of iPXE that is guaranteed to have been included in
every binary that was previously subject to a security review and
signed by Microsoft. It is therefore legitimate to assume that at
least these files have already been reviewed to the required standard
multiple times.

On platforms where DMA devices are not in the same coherency domain as
the CPU cache, it is necessary to create page table entries where the
translations are marked as uncacheable.
We choose to place iPXE within the low 4GB of memory (since 32-bit DMA
devices are still reasonably common even on systems with 64-bit CPUs).
We therefore need to cover only the low 4GB of memory with these page
table entries.
Update virt_to_phys() to allow for the existence of such a mapping,
assuming that iPXE itself will always reside within the top 4GB of the
64-bit virtual address space (and therefore that the DMA mapping must
lie somewhere below this in the negative virtual address space).

iPXE does not make use of any thread-local storage. Use the otherwise
unused thread pointer register ("tp") to hold the current value of
the virtual address offset, rather than using a global variable.
This ensures that virt_offset can be made valid even during very early
initialisation (when iPXE may be executing directly from read-only
memory and so cannot update a global variable).

The virtual offset memory model used for i386-pcbios and x86_64-pcbios
can be generalised to also cover riscv32-sbi and riscv64-sbi. In both
architectures, the 32-bit builds will use a circular map of the 32-bit
address space, and the 64-bit builds will use an identity map for the
relevant portion of the physical address space, with iPXE itself
placed in the negative (kernel) address space.
Generalise and document the virt_offset mechanism, and set it as the
default for both PCBIOS and SBI platforms.
