Add a kernel patch for the efi boot stub to read a config file when booted without arguments, and base removable media booting off of that patch

The patch is currently being discussed on LKML and hopefully will be included
in mainline in some form in the future. Note that booting from the livecd has
to do a lot of work before anything is output to the console, so if the drive
is still busy don't assume the boot has hanged
