[PATCH 2/2] efi/esrt: mark ESRT memory region as nomap

[Tyler Baicar <tbaicar@codeaurora.org>]

The ESRT memory region is being exposed as System RAM in /proc/iomem
which is wrong because it cannot be overwritten. This memory is needed
for kexec kernels in order to properly initialize ESRT, so if it is
overwritten it will cause ESRT failures in the kexec kernel. Mark this
region as nomap so that it is not overwritten.
