[PATCH 1/8] x86/platform/UV: Fix panic with missing UVsystab support

From: Mike Travis
Date: Fri Jan 13 2017 - 10:25:20 EST


Fix the panic where KEXEC'd kernel does not have access to EFI runtime
mappings. This may cause the extended UVsystab to not be available.
The solution is to revert to non-UV mode and continue with limited
capabilities.
