Matt are suggesting to below one, is it ok to you? I'm fine with both.
The efi runtime services can only be switched to virtual
mode once without rebooting. The kexec kernel must maintain
the same physical to virtual address mappings as the first
kernel. The mappings are exported to sysfs so userspace tools
can reassemble them and pass them into the kexec kernel.

Since we do not know the exact number of ranges, introducing a list
or count the totoal range numbers before will add more code. Do you
really think it's necessary?
I tend to not fix every warnings from checkpatch if it's not a must-fix
one.

suppose kexec runtime map preparing fails we still can get 1st kernel boot ok.

Good catch, the original krealloc error handling also need improve.
Ok, so I will improve the code by adding a link list for new_memmap
and removing the krealloc.

For simplifying the code, will do.

I did not add KEXEC because I thought it can be used for debugging purpose.

Hmm, it's created in efi.c so I think we can not move it..
