efi: Fix handling of multiple efi_fake_mem= entries
Dave noticed that when specifying multiple efi_fake_mem= entries only the last entry was successfully being reflected in the efi memory map. This is due to the fact that the efi_memmap_insert() is being called multiple times, but on successive invocations the insertion should be applied to the last new memmap rather than the original map at efi_fake_memmap() entry. Rework efi_fake_memmap() to install the new memory map after each efi_fake_mem= entry is parsed. This also fixes an issue in efi_fake_memmap() that caused it to litter emtpy entries into the end of the efi memory map. An empty entry causes efi_memmap_insert() to attempt more memmap splits / copies than efi_memmap_split_count() accounted for when sizing the new map. When that happens efi_memmap_insert() may overrun its allocation, and if you are lucky will spill over to an unmapped page leading to crash signature like the following rather than silent corruption: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffff281000 [..] RIP: 0010:efi_memmap_insert+0x11d/0x191 [..] Call Trace: ? bgrt_init+0xbe/0xbe ? efi_arch_mem_reserve+0x1cb/0x228 ? acpi_parse_bgrt+0xa/0xd ? acpi_table_parse+0x86/0xb8 ? acpi_boot_init+0x494/0x4e3 ? acpi_parse_x2apic+0x87/0x87 ? setup_acpi_sci+0xa2/0xa2 ? setup_arch+0x8db/0x9e1 ? start_kernel+0x6a/0x547 ? secondary_startup_64+0xb6/0xc0 Commit af164898 "x86/efi: Update e820 with reserved EFI boot services data to fix kexec breakage" introduced more occurrences where efi_memmap_insert() is invoked after an efi_fake_mem= configuration has been parsed. Previously the side effects of vestigial empty entries were benign, but with commit af164898 that follow-on efi_memmap_insert() invocation triggers efi_memmap_insert() overruns.
