are not really needed anymore
- Misc fixes and cleanups

For debugging purposes it is very useful to have a way to see the full
contents of the SNP CPUID table provided to a guest. Add an sev=debug
kernel command-line option to do so.
Also introduce some infrastructure so that additional options can be
specified via sev=option1[,option2] over time in a consistent manner.
[ bp: Massage, simplify string parsing. ]

It doesn't make any sense to disable non-executable mappings -
security-wise or else.
So rip out that switch and move the remaining code into setup.c and
delete setup_nx.c

This is pretty much unused and not really useful. What is more, all
relevant MCA hardware has recoverable machine checks support so there's
no real need to tweak MCA tolerance levels in order to *maybe* extend
machine lifetime.
So rip it out.

commit 5955633e91bf ("x86/reboot: Skip DMI checks if reboot set by user")
made it so that it's not required to recompile the kernel in order to
bypass broken reboot quirks compiled into an image:
* This variable is used privately to keep track of whether or not
* reboot_type is still set to its default value (i.e., reboot= hasn't
* been set on the command line). This is needed so that we can
* suppress DMI scanning for reboot quirks. Without it, it's
* impossible to override a faulty reboot quirk without recompiling.
However, at the time it was not eally documented outside the source code,
and so this information isn't really available to the average user out
there.
The change is a little white lie and invented "reboot=default" since it is
easy to remember, and documents well. The truth is that any random string
that is *not* a currently accepted string will work.
Since that doesn't document well for non-coders, and since it's unknown
what the future additions might be, lay claim on "default" since that is
exactly what it achieves.

Disable parsing of the HMAT for debug, to workaround broken platform
instances, or cases where it is otherwise not wanted.

After commit cf65a0f6f6ff ("dma-mapping: move all DMA mapping code to
kernel/dma") some of the files are referring to outdated information,
i.e. old file names of DMA mapping sources. Fix it here.
Note, the lines with "Glue code for..." have been removed completely.
