Subject: [PATCH 2/5] efi: arm: revert deferred unmap of early memmap mapping

Commit 3ea86495aef2 ("efi/arm: preserve early mapping of UEFI memory
map longer for BGRT") deferred the unmap of the early mapping of the
UEFI memory map to accommodate the ACPI BGRT code, which looks up the
memory type that backs the BGRT table to validate it against the
requirements of the UEFI spec.

Unfortunately, this causes problems on ARM, which does not permit
early mappings to persist after paging_init() is called, resulting
in a WARN() splat. Since we don't support the BGRT table on ARM anway,
let's revert ARM to the old behaviour, which is to take down the
early mapping at the end of efi_init().

Fixes: 3ea86495aef2 ("efi/arm: preserve early mapping of UEFI memory ...")
