x86/efi: Use efi_switch_mm() rather than manually twiddling with %cr3



Use helper function efi_switch_mm() to switch to/from efi_mm when
invoking any UEFI runtime services.

Likewise, we need to switch back to previous mm (mm context stolen
by efi_mm) after the above calls return successfully. We can use
efi_switch_mm() helper function only with x86_64 kernel and
"efi=old_map" disabled because, x86_32 and efi=old_map do not use
efi_pgd, rather they use swapper_pg_dir.
