The current EFI implementation confuses pointers and addresses. Normally
we can get away with this but in the case of sandbox it causes failures.
Despite the fact that efi_allocate_pages() returns a u64, it is actually
a pointer, not an address. Add special handling to avoid a crash when
running 'bootefi hello'.

Please, don't pollute general code with sandbox specific stuff where
this can be avoided.
write_acpi_tables() anyway converts to a pointer. We should not convert
twice. Correct the parameter of write_acpi_tables() instead to expect a
pointer.
