Subject: [PATCH] efi: libstub: drop pointless get_memory_map() call
Currently, the non-x86 stub code calls get_memory_map() redundantly,
given that the data it returns is never used anywhere. So drop the call.
Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # v4.14+
Fixes: 24d7c494ce46 ("efi/arm-stub: Round up FDT allocation to mapping size")
