Subject: [PATCH 1/4] efi/memreserve: deal with memreserve entries in unmapped memory

Ensure that the EFI memreserve entries can be accessed, even if they
are located in memory that the kernel (e.g., a crashkernel) omits from
the linear map.

Fixes: 80424b02d42b ("efi: Reduce the amount of memblock reservations ...")
