The smbios.c source file is not currently included in the x86 build, and
before we can do so, it needs some tweaks to build correctly in
combination with the EFI mixed mode support.

Update the efi_get_smbios_string() macro to take a pointer to the entire
record struct rather than the header. This removes the need to pass the
type explicitly, as it can be inferred from the typed pointer. Also,
drop 'type' from the prototype of __efi_get_smbios_string(), as it is
never referenced.

We no longer use the recsize argument for locating the string table in
an SMBIOS record, so we can drop it from the internal API.

Instead of using the SMBIOS type 1 record 'family' field, which is often
modified by OEMs, use the type 4 'processor ID' and 'processor version'
fields, which are set to a small set of probe-able values on all known
Ampere EFI systems in the field.

The type 1 SMBIOS record happens to always be the same size, but there
are other record types which have been augmented over time, and so we
should really use the length field in the header to decide where the
string table starts.

Ampere Altra machines are reported to misbehave when the SetTime() EFI
runtime service is called after ExitBootServices() but before calling
SetVirtualAddressMap(). Given that the latter is horrid, pointless and
explicitly documented as optional by the EFI spec, we no longer invoke
it at boot if the configured size of the VA space guarantees that the
EFI runtime memory regions can remain mapped 1:1 like they are at boot
time.
On Ampere Altra machines, this results in SetTime() calls issued by the
rtc-efi driver triggering synchronous exceptions during boot. We can
now recover from those without bringing down the system entirely, due to
commit 23715a26c8d81291 ("arm64: efi: Recover from synchronous
exceptions occurring in firmware"). However, it would be better to avoid
the issue entirely, given that the firmware appears to remain in a funny
state after this.
So attempt to identify these machines based on the 'family' field in the
type #1 SMBIOS record, and call SetVirtualAddressMap() unconditionally
in that case.
