From: Sai Praneeth sai.praneeth.prakhya@intel.com
commit 50a0cb565246f20d59cdb161778531e4b19d35ac upstream.
Starting with this commit 35eb8b81edd4 ("x86/efi: Build our own page table structures") efi regions have a separate page directory called "efi_pgd". In order to access any efi region we have to first shift %cr3 to this page table. In the bgrt code we are trying to copy bgrt_header and image, but these regions fall under "EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA" and to access these regions we have to shift %cr3 to efi_pgd and not doing so will cause page fault as shown below.

As said above one way to fix this bug is to shift %cr3 to efi_pgd but we are not doing that way because it leaks inner details of how we switch to EFI page tables into a new call site and it also adds duplicate code. Instead, we remove the call to efi_lookup_mapped_addr() and always perform early_mem*() instead of early_io*() because we want to remap RAM regions and not I/O regions. We also delete efi_lookup_mapped_addr() because we are no longer using it.
