Yes, I think we want to make sure all mappings are there when we do an
EFI runtime call so that we never #PF while it executes.
Matt mentioned on IRC that the it could be that his EFI runtime is
referencing EFI_RESERVED area which we don't map. However, we need to
confirm/disprove that first, as it is currently only a hunch.
