[GRUB PATCH RFC 00/18] i386: Intel TXT secure launcher

Hi,

This is an RFC patchset for the GRUB introducing the Intel TXT secure launcher.
This is a part of larger work known as the TrenchBoot. Patchset can be split
into two distinct parts:
  - 01-12: preparatory patches,
  - 13-18: the Intel TXT secure launcher itself.

The initial implementation of the Intel TXT secure launcher works. However,
there are still some missing bits and pieces, e.g.:
  - SINIT ACM auto loader,
  - lack of RMRR support,
  - lack of support for MLEs larger than 1 GiB,
  - lack of TPM 1.2 support.
  - various fixes and cleanups.

Commands introduced by this patchset: tpm_type, slaunch, slaunch_module (not
required on server platforms) and slaunch_state (useful for checking platform
configuration and state; based on tboot's txt-stat).

Daniel
