efi: libstub/arm: Account for firmware reserved memory at the base of RAM
The EFI stubloader for ARM starts out by allocating a 32 MB window at the base of RAM, in order to ensure that the decompressor (which blindly copies the uncompressed kernel into that window) does not overwrite other allocations that are made while running in the context of the EFI firmware. In some cases, (e.g., U-Boot running on the Raspberry Pi 2), this is causing boot failures because this initial allocation conflicts with a page of reserved memory at the base of RAM that contains the SMP spin tables and other pieces of firmware data and which was put there by the bootloader under the assumption that the TEXT_OFFSET window right below the kernel is only used partially during early boot, and will be left alone once the memory reservations are processed and taken into account. So let's permit reserved memory regions to exist in the region starting at the base of RAM, and ending at TEXT_OFFSET - 5 * PAGE_SIZE, which is the window below the kernel that is not touched by the early boot code.
