hi,

i tried to install 7.9 under libvirt/qemu with uefi/edk2 firmware, but
it faults right after the loader tries to jump to the kernel.

it seems since edk2 ~2023, it runs with paging enabled and maps memory
non-executable. to fix this we can disable S mode paging by setting SATP
CSR to 0 before the jump.

linux does the same in its efi stub.

this lets bsd.rd and bsd boot for me in the vm.
