Looking at the TPM spec [1] If the ACPI TPM2 table contains the address and size of the Platform Firmware TCG log, firmware “pins” the memory associated with the Platform FirmwareTCG log, and reports this memory as “Reserved” memory via the INT 15h/E820 interface. It looks like the firmware should pass this as reserved in e820 memory map. However, it doesn't seem to. The firmware being tested on is: dmidecode -s bios-version edk2-20240214-2.el9 When this area is not reserved, it comes up as usable in /sys/firmware/memmap. This means that kexec, which uses that memmap to find usable memory regions, can select the region where efi.tpm_log is and overwrite it and relocate_kernel. Having a fix in firmware can be difficult to get through. As a secondary fix, this patch marks that region as reserved in e820_table_firmware if it is currently E820_TYPE_RAM so that kexec doesn't use it for kernel segments.
