x86/boot/compressed: Register dummy NMI handler in EFI boot loader, to avoid kdump crashes

If kdump is enabled, when using mce_inject to inject errors, EFI
boot loader would decompressed & load second kernel for saving
vmcore file.

For normal errors that is fine. However, in MCEs cases, the panic
CPU that firstly enters into mce_panic(), is running within nmi
interrupt context, and the processor blocks delivery of subsequent
NMIs until the next execution of the IRET instruction.

When the panic CPU takes long time in the panic processing route,
and causes the watchdog timeout, at this moment, the processor
already receives NMI interrupt in the background.

In the following processure, panic CPU would run into EFI loader
and raise page fault exception (like visiting `vidmem` variable
when attempts to call debug_putstr()), the CPU would execute IRET
instruction when exits from page fault handler.

But the loader never registers handler for NMI vector in IDT,
lack of vector handler would cause reboot, which interrupts
kdump processure and fails to save vmcore file.

Here is steps to reproduce the above issue (Have a certain probability):

	1. # cat uncorrected
	CPU 1 BANK 4
	STATUS uncorrected 0xc0
	MCGSTATUS  EIPV MCIP
	ADDR 0x1234
	RIP 0xdeadbabe
	RAISINGCPU 0
	MCGCAP SER CMCI TES 0x6
	2. # modprobe mce_inject
	3. # mce-inject uncorrected

For increasing probability of reproduction of this issue, there is two ways of
modification to select:

  1. modify the threshold value of watchdog;
  2. add delays before panic() in mce_panic() and modify PANIC_TIMEOUT macro;
