I don't think so. See below...

What you can see here are actually the EFI runtime service mappings, not
the ESP fix area. Check the addresses and compare them. You should find
similarities ;) And, in fact, the EFI mappings are incomplete in the
second dump, i.e. the vanilla kernel one, because of the enforced limit
for the ESP fix area.

So, in your examples are actually *no* ESP fix area mappings as those
would be r/o. In fact, I think, the above dumps are the result of a
CONFIG_EFI_PGT_DUMP enabled kernel that dumps the page table after
setting up the EFI mappings. There are no ESP fix mappings in this dump
because those are only set up after the EFI runtime service mappings.
See the following code in init/main:

  #ifdef CONFIG_X86
      if (efi_enabled(EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES))
          efi_enter_virtual_mode();
  #endif
  #ifdef CONFIG_X86_ESPFIX64
      /* Should be run before the first non-init thread is created */
      init_espfix_bsp();
  #endif

To get a more complete view of the mappings, have a look at the debugfs
file /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables.

For v3.17 I get (notice the missing EFI mappings):

The ESP fix area is trimmed, as expected. The EFI runtime service area
is, beside being rather lengthy, complete. Also, as expected.

It's the third parameter in the address_markers[] array in
arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:

  # ifdef CONFIG_X86_ESPFIX64
    { ESPFIX_BASE_ADDR, "ESPfix Area", 16 },
  # endif

So, it's 16 entries for the ESP fix area. If it's set to 0, as it is for
all the other entries, no limitation applies.
