x86/efi/mixed: Simplify and document thunking logic

Now that the GDT/IDT and data segment selector preserve/restore logic
has been removed from the boot-time EFI mixed mode thunking routines,
the remaining logic to handle the function arguments can be simplified:
the setup of the arguments on the stack can be moved into the 32-bit
callee, which is able to use a more idiomatic sequence of PUSH
instructions.

This, in turn, allows the far call and far return to be issued using
plain LCALL and LRET instructions, removing the need to set up the
return explicitly.
