Such additional memory scans are always a bit risky, e.g. if there's
stray hardware there. Has it been verified that existing kernels
already scan this area?

printk here?

Surely UNUSTABLE and RUNTIME_SERVICES should be added somewhere to the resources,
otherwise MMIO allocation might put something there.

That's the same what ACPI does, isn't it? Some code sharing
would be good.

Another useless BUG_ON. Some more below too.

Array overflow checking?

That printk should be dependent on the runtime apic verbosity level?

permanant is a typo?

imho it would be cleaner if the callers just called these functions
directly. Are the !phys !size checks really needed?

Since the mappings are always 4K you would only need to remap
if the size is > PAGE_SIZE

To be honest I'm not sure why this list exists at all.
Is it that difficult to just rewalk the firmware supplied
table as needed?
