They are moved to efi.c efi_setup_init(), I'm not sure if I expained clear
enough, in current code parse_efi_setup only accept one argument phys_addr
so I will mapping it with sizeof(struct setup_data) to get the payload size
then get the nr_efi_runtime_map. This is a simplification from the old 
implementation.

Based on current implementation, yes, I can add back another argument data_len
to avoid the 1st mapping thus I can print efi memmap as you said.

In this way I need export another extern for the data_len though.

What do you mean about NOPARSE, do you want another function name like
save_efi_setup()?
