This EFI memap corruption is happening with efi_arch_mem_reserve() invocation in case of kexec boot.
( efi_arch_mem_reserve() is invoked with the following call-stack: )

[ 0.315629] start_kernel+0x68/0xa90

[ 0.317582] common_startup_64+0x13e/0x141
efi_arch_mem_reserve() calls efi_memmap_alloc() to allocate memory for
EFI memory map and due to early allocation it uses memblock allocation.
Later during boot, efi_enter_virtual_mode() calls kexec_enter_virtual_mode()
in case of a kexec-ed kernel boot.
This function kexec_enter_virtual_mode() installs the new EFI memory map by
calling efi_memmap_init_late() which remaps the efi_memmap physically allocated
in efi_arch_mem_reserve(), but this remapping is still using memblock allocation.
Subsequently, when memblock is freed later in boot flow, this remapped
efi_memmap will have random corruption (similar to a use-after-free scenario).
The corrupted EFI memory map is then passed to the next kexec-ed kernel
which causes a panic when trying to use the corrupted EFI memory map.
Fix this EFI memory map corruption by skipping efi_arch_mem_reserve() for kexec.
Additionally, efi_mem_reserve() is used to reserve boot service memory
eg. bgrt, but it is not necessary for kexec boot, as there are no
boot services in kexec reboot at all after the first kernel ExitBootServices().
The UEFI memmap passed to kexec kernel includes not only the runtime
service memory map but also the boot service memory ranges which were
reserved by the first kernel with efi_mem_reserve, and those boot service
memory ranges have already been marked "EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME" attribute.
This is the additional reason why efi_mem_reserve can be skipped
for kexec booting and by checking the set EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute.
