[PATCH 3/3] arm64/efi: memblock_remove() rather than _reserve UEFI reserved memory

Memory regions that are not advertised as being available for general use
to the kernel should either never be mapped at all (EfiReservedMemory),
since it should not even be accessed speculatively, or they are mapped
and unmapped explicitly when used (UEFI runtime services regions), so
the linear mapping is never used anyway.
This means we are better off removing these regions from the linear
mapping entirely, so memblock_remove() rather than memblock_reserve()
them.
