Ard Biesheuvel 7fd683812e efi/esrt: Only call efi_mem_reserve() for boot services memory 
[ Upstream commit 61f0d55569 ]

The following commit:

  7e1550b8f2 ("efi: Drop type and attribute checks in efi_mem_desc_lookup()")

refactored the implementation of efi_mem_desc_lookup() so that the type
check is moved to the callers, one of which is the x86 version of
efi_arch_mem_reserve(), where we added a modified check that only takes
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA regions into account.

This is reasonable, since it is the only memory type that requires this,
but doing so uncovered some unexpected behavior in the ESRT code, which
permits the ESRT table to reside in other types of memory than what the
UEFI spec mandates (i.e., EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA), and unconditionally
calls efi_mem_reserve() on the region in question. This may result in
errors such as

  esrt: Reserving ESRT space from 0x000000009c810318 to 0x000000009c810350.
  efi: Failed to lookup EFI memory descriptor for 0x000000009c810318

when the ESRT table is not in EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA memory, but we try
to reserve it nonetheless.

So make the call to efi_mem_reserve() conditional on the memory type.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

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.
