Dave Young cd2cc6d131 kexec_file: do not add extra alignment to efi memmap
[ Upstream commit a841aa83df ]

Chun-Yi reported a kernel warning message below:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at ../mm/early_ioremap.c:182 early_iounmap+0x4f/0x12c()
  early_iounmap(ffffffffff200180, 00000118) [0] size not consistent 00000120

The problem is x86 kexec_file_load adds extra alignment to the efi
memmap: in bzImage64_load():

        efi_map_sz = efi_get_runtime_map_size();
        efi_map_sz = ALIGN(efi_map_sz, 16);

And __efi_memmap_init maps with the size including the alignment bytes
but efi_memmap_unmap use nr_maps * desc_size which does not include the
extra bytes.

The alignment in kexec code is only needed for the kexec buffer internal
use Actually kexec should pass exact size of the efi memmap to 2nd
kernel.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
