PATCH 1/1 arm64/efi: add missing call to early_ioremap_reset()

The early ioremap support introduced by patch bf4b558eba92 ("arm64: add early_ioremap support") failed to add a call to early_ioremap_reset() at an appropriate time. Without this call, invocations of early_ioremap etc. that are done too late will go unnoticed and may cause corruption.

This is exactly what happened when the first user of this feature was added in patch f84d02755f5a ("arm64: add EFI runtime services"). The early mapping of the EFI memory map is unmapped during an early initcall, at which time the early ioremap support is long gone.

Fix by adding the missing call to early_ioremap_reset() to setup_arch(), and move the offending early_memunmap() to right after the point where the early mapping of the EFI memory map is last used.

Fixes f84d02755f5a ("arm64: add EFI runtime services")

---

After discussing off-list between Mark Salter, Leif and myself, this is the bare minimum to fix the early ioremap issue in kernels up to 3.19, combined into a single patch. Considering that the early_ioremap support was added in 3.15 (eol), but not used until EFI runtime services support was added in 3.16, there is no reason to split this up. Also, we have work underway to drastically change the way runtime services etc are mapped during early boot [which we hope will make it into 3.20] so it makes sense to do the bare minimum here and handle any fallout in terms of style etc later.

Ok, so this replaces the two patch series sent earlier by Leif and should be appied for 3.19?
