Subject[PATCHv3 4/5] x86/efi: enable runtime call flag checking
Message-ID<rrP3K-6Kr-41@gated-at.bofh.it>
Define ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK for x86, which will enable the generic
runtime wrapper code to detect when firmware erroneously modifies flags
over a runtime services function call.

For x86 (both 32-bit and 64-bit), we only need check the interrupt flag.
