This (tiny) series resolves a fairly serious problem with
early_ioremap/iounmap/memremap/memunmap on arm64. These functions
cannot safely be called after paging_init(), but the sanity check
was not triggering.
As a result, a fixmap entry was incorrectly cleared during
early_initcalls on arm64 UEFI systems.
1/2 reworks the arm64 UEFI support code to not attempt these calls
and
2/2 enables the sanity check

arm64: don't make early_*map() calls post paging_init()
arm64: call early_ioremap_reset() in paging_init()
