Also, one question for my knowledge, why the ESRT driver uses eary_memremap()? Can't it uses the regular memremap as the EFI BGRT driver? As far as I can see, it only exposes ESRT objects in sysfs. > > Instead, could you fold this call into the same location as > efi_find_mirror() and co. in x86's setup_arch()? Sure. I just sent a v2 with your suggestion.
