[PATCH v5 1/4] efi: Save location of EFI confidential computing area

Confidential computing (coco) hardware such as AMD SEV (Secure Encrypted
Virtualization) allows a guest owner to inject secrets into the VMs
memory without the host/hypervisor being able to read them.

Firmware support for secret injection is available in OVMF, which
reserves a memory area for secret injection and includes a pointer to it
the in EFI config table entry LINUX_EFI_COCO_SECRET_TABLE_GUID.

If EFI exposes such a table entry, uefi_init() will keep a pointer to
the EFI config table entry in efi.coco_secret, so it can be used later
by the kernel (specifically drivers/virt/coco/efi_secret).  It will also
appear in the kernel log as "CocoSecret=ADDRESS"; for example:

    [    0.000000] efi: EFI v2.70 by EDK II
    [    0.000000] efi: CocoSecret=0x7f22e680 SMBIOS=0x7f541000 ACPI=0x7f77e000 ACPI 2.0=0x7f77e014 MEMATTR=0x7ea0c018

The new functionality can be enabled with CONFIG_EFI_COCO_SECRET=y.

+	  Confidential Computing platforms (such as AMD SEV) allow the
+	  Guest Owner to securely inject secrets during guest VM launch.
+	  The secrets are placed in a designated EFI reserved memory area.
+
+	  In order to use the secrets in the kernel, the location of the secret
+	  area (as published in the EFI config table) must be kept.
+
+	  If you say Y here, the address of the EFI secret area will be kept
+	  for usage inside the kernel.  This will allow the
+	  virt/coco/efi_secret module to access the secrets, which in turn
+	  allows userspace programs to access the injected secrets.
