Subject: [PATCH 6/6] x86: fixes some bugs about EFI memory map handling

This patch fixes some bugs of EFI memory handing code.

- On x86_64, it is possible that EFI memory map can not be mapped via
  identity map, so efi_map_memmap is removed, just use early_ioremap.

- On i386, the EFI memory map mapping take effect cross paging_init,
  so it is not necessary to use efi_map_memmap.

- EFI memory map is unmapped in efi_enter_virtual_mode to avoid
  early_ioremap leak.
