With efi_fake_memmap() and efi_arch_mem_reserve() the efi table may be
updated and replaced multiple times. When that happens a previous
dynamically allocated efi memory map can be garbage collected. Use the
new EFI_MEMMAP_{SLAB,MEMBLOCK} flags to detect when a dynamically
allocated memory map is being replaced.
Debug statements in efi_memmap_free() reveal:
efi: __efi_memmap_free:37: phys: 0x23ffdd580 size: 2688 flags: 0x2
efi: __efi_memmap_free:37: phys: 0x9db00 size: 2640 flags: 0x2
efi: __efi_memmap_free:37: phys: 0x9e580 size: 2640 flags: 0x2
...a savings of 7968 bytes on a qemu boot with 2 entries specified to
efi_fake_mem=.
