v3 cover efi/arm64: FP/SIMD preserve/restore during UEFI Runtime Services

Two patches to add FP/SIMD preserve/restore to UEFI Runtime Services:
- patch #1 moves runtime services wrappers to generic code so we can reuse them for arm64
- patch #2 enables the wrappers for arm64 and inserts calls to kernel_neon_begin and kernel_neon_end

@Matt: please queue up for 3.17

v3:
- improve commit message for patch #2 and add Catalin's ack

v2:
- add Kconfig symbol EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS so we don't break ia64 by enabling it unconditionally

PATCH v3 1/2 efi/x86: move UEFI Runtime Services wrappers to generic code

In order for other archs (such as arm64) to be able to reuse the virtual mode function call wrappers, move them to drivers/firmware/efi/runtime.c.

PATCH v3 2/2 efi/arm64: preserve FP/SIMD registers on UEFI runtime services calls

In reply to Ard Biesheuvel

According to the UEFI spec section 2.3.6.4, the use of FP/SIMD instructions is allowed, and should adhere to the AAPCS64 calling convention, which states that 'only the bottom 64 bits of each value stored in registers v8-v15 need to be preserved' (section 5.1.2).

This applies equally to UEFI Runtime Services called by the kernel, so make sure the FP/SIMD register file is preserved in this case. We do this by enabling the wrappers for UEFI Runtime Services (CONFIG_EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS) and inserting calls to kernel_neon_begin() and kernel_neon_end() into these wrappers.

Thanks Ard, applied.

FYI that "please queue up for 3.17" message is super helpful when I'm trying to figure out what branch to apply this to.
