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
