o Introduce efimd_va2pa() to translate addresses in efi_copy{in|out}()
...
and efi_readin(). This removes MD code from copy.c.

changing the Makefile, fail the creation of loader.efi when there are
unresolved symbols in loader.sym. This avoids silently creating a
faulty EFI binary.

- If the COMSPEED is set to 0, then don't try to initialize the serial port
...
and assume that the BIOS has set it up for us. This allows folks with a
serial-aware BIOS to set the BIOS to speeds above 9600 and allow boot0 to
just use the existing settings.
- Purge some gratuitous cpp comments as per style(9).

Setting "kernel" to an absolute path is a bad idea because
...
after loading such a kernel, "module_path" will be set to
an insane value. Fixed example by providing an equivalent
setting. For the record, when automatically loading a
kernel (commands "boot" and "boot-conf"), the following is
tried, in this order:
path=/boot/${kernel} file=${bootfile}
path=/boot/${kernel} file=${kernel}
path=${kernel} file=${bootfile}
path=${kernel} file=${kernel}
path=${module_path} file=${kernel}
