This is part two of the series to have the EFI and LMB modules have a coherent view of memory. Part one of this goal was to change the LMB module to have a global and persistent memory map. Those patches have now been applied to the next branch.
These patches are changing the EFI memory allocation API's such that they rely on the LMB module to allocate RAM memory. This fixes the current scenario where the EFI memory module has no visibility of the allocations/reservations made by the LMB module. One thing to note here is that this is limited to the RAM memory region, i.e. the EFI_CONVENTIONAL_MEMORY type. Any other memory type that is to be added to the EFI memory map, still gets handled by the EFI memory module.
Changes since V3:
- Add comments for the LMB_NOOVERWRITE and LMB_NONOTIFY flags
- Drop use of is_addr_in_ram() function
- Drop use of CONFIG_MEM_MAP_UPDATE_NOTIFY symbol to check if the notification needs to be sent.
- s/lmb_notify/lmb_should_notify
- Put a check for EFI_LOADER in the lmb_should_notify() function
Some test logs to highlight the issue that is being fixed by the series.

I have stated my objections and won't repeat them here. With -master currently broken for EFI, and many of the patches in this series being required even with my view of the world, I think the best thing is to apply this series now, and move on.
Thank you, Simon, for saying this. I will be applying this shortly.
I know this is kind of urgent, but it's late here, I'll be able to have a look at the patches tomorrow. From a quick skim they look reasonable, so feel free to apply it and we can send fixes if anything isn't working as intended.
Thanks /Ilias
