So what? Add it.

This is actually exactly the reason why it shouldn't be another
subsys_initcall() if it can be helped. People would need to go have a
look at drivers/firmware/efi/Makefile to realize that the link order is
ok.

And, this is prone to future breakage if people go and move code around
and thereby change the link order.

Please call efi_runtime_map_init from efisubsys_init.
