[PATCH v2 05/12] x86: Exit EFI boot services before starting kernel

When running the EFI app, we need to exit boot services before jumping
to Linux.

At some point it may be possible to jump to Linux and pass on the boot
services, so that the Linux efistub can be used. For now, this is not
implemented.
