x86/init: Use a platform legacy quirk for EBDA
This replaces the paravirt_enabled() check with a proper x86 legacy platform quirk. As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as follows: TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks() +39 +35 +35 +25 That's a 4 byte total overhead, the rest is all cleared out upon init as its all __init text. v2: document 0-day vmlinux size impact Signed-off-by: Luis R.
