efi_loader: Add bounce buffer support
Some hardware that is supported by U-Boot can not handle DMA above 32bits. For these systems, we need to come up with a way to expose the disk interface in a safe way. This patch implements EFI specific bounce buffers. For non-EFI cases, this apparently was no issue so far, since we can just define our environment variables conveniently.
