Changes since v3 [1]:
- Rather than pass a reference to a new flags argument, pass a common
  data structure ('struct efi_memory_map_data'), between
  efi_memmap_alloc() and efi_memmap_install(). (Ard)

- Arrange for EFI_MEMMAP_SLAB to be clear if EFI_MEMMAP_MEMBLOCK was set
  and vice versa (Ard).

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. An empty entry causes
efi_memmap_insert() to attempt more memmap splits / copies than
efi_memmap_split_count() accounted for when sizing the new map. When
that happens efi_memmap_insert() may overrun its allocation, and if you
are lucky will spill over to an unmapped page leading to crash
signature like the following rather than silent corruption:

    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
efi_memmap_insert() overruns.
