  efi: capsule-loader: reinstate virtual capsule mapping (2018-01-02 16:50:34 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Another pair of EFI fixes for v4.15:
- fix 'add_efi_memmap' early param handling, which inadvertently gets called
  before early params have been parsed
- reinstate vmapping of capsule images, so that the firmware can process
  them immediately (this got broken in v4.13)
