[PATCH v3 17/17] x86/efi: Drop kexec quirk for the EFI memory attributes table

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email protected]>

Now that the EFI memory attributes table is preserved properly, and the
quirk to detect corrupted tables has been updated not to result in false
positives when the number of EFI memory map entries is low compared to
the number of EFI memory attributes table entries, there is no longer a
need to ignore the latter when doing a kexec boot. So drop the
workaround.

This reverts commit
