Hi Matt,
Thanks for your reply.
You mean call the function efi_unmap_memmap() like x86?

however, it seems no need to clear EFI_MEMMAP here. For arm*, the flag
EFI_MEMMAP is set in function reserve_regions(), which is called
only when uefi_init() return 0:

efi_init()
   -> reserve_regions()
       -> set_bit(EFI_MEMMAP, &efi.flags);
Thanks
Xie Yisheng.
