UEFI v2.6 introduces EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE which describes memory
protections that may be applied to the EFI Runtime code and data regions by
the kernel. This enables the kernel to map these regions more strictly thereby
increasing security.

Presently, the only valid bits for the attribute field of a memory descriptor
are EFI_MEMORY_RO and EFI_MEMORY_XP, hence use these bits to update the
mappings in efi_pgd.

The UEFI specification recommends to use this feature instead of
EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE and hence while updating EFI mappings we first
check for EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE and if it's present we update
the mappings according to this table and hence disregarding
EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE even if it's published by the firmware. We consider
EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE only when EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE is absent.
