stacks: call check_irqs() after switch_next()
In function run_thread() the function check_irqs() gets called
after the thread switch for atomic handoff reasons. In yield()
it's the other way round.
If check_irqs() is called after run_thread() and check_irqs()
is called before switch_next() in yield(), it can happen in a

a check_irqs() call in between. Call check_irqs() after

stacks: call check_irqs() in run_thread()
The comment above the yield() function suggests that yield()
allows interrupts for a short time. But yield() only briefly
enables interrupts if seabios was built without CONFIG_THREADS
or if yield() is called from the main thread. In order to
guarantee that the interrupts were enabled once before yield()
returns in a background thread, the main thread must call
check_irqs() before or after every thread switch. The function
run_thread() also switches threads, but the call to check_irqs()
was forgotten. Add the missing check_irqs() call.
This fixes PS/2 keyboard initialization failures.
The code in src/hw/ps2port.c relies on yield() to briefly enable
interrupts. There is a comment above the yield() function in
__ps2_command(), where the author left a remark why the call to
yield() is actually needed.
Here is one of the call sequences leading to a PS/2 keyboard
initialization failure.

BUILD_MIN_BIOSTABLE reserves space in the f-segment. Some data

Some NVMe controllers only support small maximum request sizes, such as

BIOS callers can exceed those request sizes by defining sector counts
above this threshold. Currently we fall back to the bounce buffer

that every NVMe I/O request gets handled in a chunk size that is

nvme: Pass large I/O requests as PRP lists
Today, we split every I/O request into at most 4kb chunks and wait for these

based, so every I/O request needs to go over the network with associated
latency cost. A few ms of latency when loading 100MB initrd in 4kb chunks
does add up.
NVMe implements a feature to allow I/O requests spanning multiple pages,
called PRP lists. This patch takes larger I/O operations and checks if
they can be directly passed to the NVMe backing device as PRP list.
At least for grub, read operations can always be mapped directly into
PRP list items.
This reduces the number of I/O operations required during a typical boot
path by roughly a factor of 5.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array
member [1][2], introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

but it is implemented in a manner which allows extension.
By receiving LCHS values directly from QEMU through fw_cfg we will be
able to support logical geometries which can not be inferred by SeaBIOS
itself.
(For instance: A 8GB virtio-blk hard drive which was originally created
as an IDE and must report LCHS of */32/63 for its operating system to
function will always break under SeaBIOS since a LARGE/LBA translation
will be used, causing the number of reported logical heads to be > 32.)
The only LCHS paravirtual interface available at the moment is for IDE
disks (rtc_read() in get_translation()) and it's limited to a maximum
of 4 disks (this code existed in SeaBIOS's translation function before
SCSI and VirtIO were even introduced).
This is why we create a new interface which allows passing LCHS
information per hdd. As mentioned, this interface may be easily extended
to support more information per hdd.
Boot device information is serialized in the following way:
* struct_size (u32)
* device path (sz string)
* device information (struct_size)
...
* device path (sz string)
* device information (struct_size)
Device path is a null terminated string in the "Open Firmware" device
path format, the same path as used in bootorder.
