Subject: efi: reserve boot service fix

Current code check boot service region with kernel text region by:
start+size >= __pa_symbol(_text) The end of the above region should be
start + size - 1 instead.

I see this problem in ovmf + Fedora 19 grub boot: text start: 1000000 md
start: 800000 md size: 800000
