Don't assume that a platform machine will provide at least the 32 bit
version of SMBIOS tables. If there's no SMBIOS tables, don't expose
directory entries in the /sys/bios/ directory.
The intention is to add dynamic mechanism for notifying the userspace
about hotplug events. Currently, the DMI (SMBIOS) blobs and ACPI tables
are exposed in the new filesystem.

If we try to align a number above 0xfffff000 to the next multiple of
the page size (4 KiB), it would wrap around to 0. This is most likely
never what we want, so let's assert if that happens.
The SI prefixes "k", "M", "G" mean "10^3", "10^6", "10^9".
The IEC prefixes "Ki", "Mi", "Gi" mean "2^10", "2^20", "2^30".
Let's use the correct name, at least in code.
Only changes the name of the constants, no other behavior change.
This patch adds a MappedROM abstraction to the Kernel VM subsystem.
It's basically the read-only byte buffer equivalent of a TypedMapping.
We use this in the ACPI and MP table parsers to scan for interesting
stuff in low memory instead of doing a bunch of address arithmetic.
