efi_free_boot_services(), as the name suggests, frees EFI boot services
code/data regions but forgets to unmap these regions from efi_pgd. This
means that any code that's running in efi_pgd address space (e.g:
any EFI runtime service) would still be able to access these regions but
the contents of these regions would have long been over written by
someone else. So, it's important to unmap these regions. Hence,
introduce efi_unmap_pages() to unmap these regions from efi_pgd.
After unmapping EFI boot services code/data regions, any illegal access
by buggy firmware to these regions would result in page fault which will
be handled by EFI specific fault handler.
