Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/efi: Free EFI memory map only when installing a new one.

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email protected]>

The logic in __efi_memmap_init() is shared between two different
execution flows:
- mapping the EFI memory map early or late into the kernel VA space, so
that its entries can be accessed;
- cloning the EFI memory map in order to insert new entries that are
created as a result of creating a memory reservation
(efi_arch_mem_reserve())

In the former case, the underlying memory containing the kernel's view
of the EFI memory map (which may be heavily modified by the kernel
itself on x86) is not modified at all, and the only thing that changes
is the virtual mapping of this memory, which is different between early
and late boot.

In the latter case, an entirely new allocation is created that carries a
new, updated version of the kernel's view of the EFI memory map. When
installing this new version, the old version will no longer be
referenced, and if the memory was allocated by the kernel, it will leak
unless it gets freed.

The logic that implements this freeing currently lives on the code path
that is shared between these two use cases, but it should only apply to
the latter. So move it to the correct spot.

While at it, move __efi_memmap_free() into its only caller, and drop the
dummy definition for non-x86 architectures, as that is no longer needed.

v2:
- free old memory map only after installing the new one succeeded
- move __efi_memmap_free() into its only caller
- drop obsolete dummy declaration from generic code

Ugh this breaks efi_fake_mem (which is another user of
__efi_memmap_free(), only not enabled by default.

I'll need to respin this.
