This will be equal to phys_addr, not the actual start of the memory
region.

> +	out_md->num_pages	= info->mem.size >> EFI_PAGE_SHIFT;

Similarly, this will be the number of bytes in the memory region
after phys_addr, not the total number of bytes in the region.  These two
differences mean that this function is not strictly equivalent to the
original efi_mem_desc_lookup().

I am not sure if this matters in practice, but I thought you would want
to be aware of it.
