Subject: x86/efi-bgrt: Fix kernel panic when mapping BGRT data

From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 50a0cb565246f20d59cdb161778531e4b19d35ac upstream.

Starting with this commit 35eb8b81edd4 ("x86/efi: Build our own page
table structures") efi regions have a separate page directory called
"efi_pgd". In order to access any efi region we have to first shift %cr3
to this page table. In the bgrt code we are trying to copy bgrt_header
and image, but these regions fall under "EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA"
and to access these regions we have to shift %cr3 to efi_pgd and not
doing so will cause page fault as shown below.

As said above one way to fix this bug is to shift %cr3 to efi_pgd but we
are not doing that way because it leaks inner details of how we switch
to EFI page tables into a new call site and it also adds duplicate code.
Instead, we remove the call to efi_lookup_mapped_addr() and always
perform early_mem*() instead of early_io*() because we want to remap RAM
regions and not I/O regions. We also delete efi_lookup_mapped_addr()
because we are no longer using it.
