On my Intel imac, /sys/firmware/efi/systab is the following:
ACPI20=0x1fefd014
ACPI=0x1fefd000
SMBIOS=0x9fec9000
if I have a kernel with a 2:2 user/kernel split, and
SMBIOS=0x5fec9000
if I have a kernel with a 3:1 split. The correct value is 0x1fec9000,
which is what the kernel prints at boot time. The following trivial
patch seems to fix things.

The comment above efi_get_time claims:
Note, this call isn't used later, so mark it __init.
Unfortunately, it's not true - it's called during suspend as well,
leading to nasty explosions.

Or, as an alternative, remove the virtual to physical mapping that
efivars does. This requires fixing up IA64 to match. I've no idea which
approach is right.

Hi.
Do you have any idea why the kernel crashes on machines with more then 512 MB ram ?

As yet, absolutely none. I don't have access to a 1GB machine - if it's
practical to add more, then I'll see what I can do.
