Are you saying that we should simply do

diff --git a/drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c b/drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c
index fdf07dd6f459..410cb0743289 100644
--- a/drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c

  	if (!memblock_is_region_reserved(addr, size))
  		memblock_reserve(addr, size);
and skip that whole call?
I think Ashish suggested rather

diff --git a/drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c b/drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c

Yes, something similar as above, as efi_mem_reserve() is used to reserve boot service memory and is not necessary for kexec boot.

So, Dave Young (dyoung@xxxxxxxxxx) had suggested that we skip efi_arch_mem_reserve() for kexec by checking the set EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute as below:
