I think it makes the most sense to chop up the regions we care about
(i.e. the ones we have drivers for) because not only does that save us
the effort of copying out the data on every kexec reboot, it also
prevents us from leaking each copy since we don't free them at the
moment.

Then we just need to maintain a separate list of regions to free in
efi_free_boot_services() or have some other way to distinguish between
them.

Oh, and save_runtime_map() would need updating to save Boot Services
regions too.
