Looks very similiar to a problem I've seen with DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y.

Can you try whether this patch

  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161222102340.2689-1-nicstange@xxxxxxxxx

fixes it for you?

It makes efi_free_boot_services() not to call into the memblock
allocator -- it must not do that after mm_init().


Thanks,

Nicolai
