[PATCH v3 0/4] efi: Fix handling of multiple efi_fake_mem= entries

[Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>]

Changes since v2 [1]:
- Move the efi_memmap_free() until efi_memmap_install() is committed to
  installing the new map. (Dave).

- Handle the case of a memblock allocated memmap being freed after the slab
  allocator is up. Just use memblock_free_late() for that case rather
  than warn. (Prompted by Dave's feedback on how many successful
  efi_memmap_free() calls occur during a boot).

- Not changed was anything additional related to Dave's concern about
  efi_fake_mem= being applied to overlapping entries. I tested
  "efi_fake_mem=4G@9G:0x40000,4G@12G:0x40000" which triggers the second
  entry to overwrite the first as well as another entry. The result is
  reasonable and functional for what is otherwise garbage input:

  efi: mem53: [Conventional Memory|   |  |SP|  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x240000000-0x2ffffffff] (3072MB)
  efi: mem54: [Conventional Memory|   |  |SP|  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x300000000-0x33fffffff] (1024MB)
  efi: mem55: [Conventional Memory|   |  |SP|  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x340000000-0x3ffffffff] (3072MB)
  efi: mem56: [Conventional Memory|   |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x400000000-0x43fffffff] (1024MB)

  # cat /proc/iomem  | grep Sof
  240000000-3ffffffff : Soft Reserved

While testing an upcoming patchset to enhance the "soft reservation"
implementation it started crashing when rebased on v5.5-rc3. This
uncovered a few bugs in the efi_fake_mem= handling and
efi_memmap_alloc() leaks.

Copied from patch4:

Dave noticed that when specifying multiple efi_fake_mem= entries only
the last entry was successfully being reflected in the efi memory map.
This is due to the fact that the efi_memmap_insert() is being called
multiple times, but on successive invocations the insertion should be
applied to the last new memmap rather than the original map at
efi_fake_memmap() entry.

Rework efi_fake_memmap() to install the new memory map after each
efi_fake_mem= entry is parsed.

This also fixes an issue in efi_fake_memmap() that caused it to litter
emtpy entries into the end of the efi memory map. The empty entry causes
efi_memmap_insert() to attempt more memmap splits / copies than
efi_memmap_split_count() accounted for when sizing the new map.

    BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffff281000

Commit af1648984828 "x86/efi: Update e820 with reserved EFI boot
services data to fix kexec breakage" is listed in Fixes: since it
introduces more occurrences where efi_memmap_insert() is invoked after
an efi_fake_mem= configuration has been parsed. Previously the side
effects of vestigial empty entries were benign, but with commit
af1648984828 that follow-on efi_memmap_insert() invocation triggers the
above crash signature.
