Hi, Toshi

Thanks for the testing, during my own testing this weekend I found two
issues I need to fix and improve:
1. print original memmap #ifdef EFI_DEBUG does not make sense, will add
   a patch to only print runtime maps we saved in case kexec.

2. move e820_reserve_setup_data late after parse early param and setup
   the runtime mapping, otherwise kdump kernel will complains about
   ioremap a normal ram region.

3. should change the phys_to_virt to ioremap in parse_efi_setup, also
   should fix the arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c, move __va to ioremap as
   well, because kexec does not works for using memmap=exactmap in
   1st kernel, bug like below:

I think these should be all the remain issue, I will fix them in next version.
Appreciate your testing.

Thanks
