PATCH 1/2 x86, kexec_file_load: Don't setup EFI info if EFI runtime is not enabled

Currenly with "efi=noruntime" in kernel command line, calling kexec_file_load will raise below problem:

[   97.967067] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
[   97.967894] #PF error: [normal kernel read fault]
...
[   97.980456] Call Trace:

[   97.981267]  bzImage64_load+0x688/0x872

[   97.983962]  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

When efi runtime is not enabled, efi memmap is not mapped, so just skip EFI info setup.
