[PATCH] arm64: acpi: arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() should use memblock

arm64's arch_apei_get_mem_attributes() tries to use
efi_mem_attributes() to read the memory attributes from the efi
memory map.
drivers/firmware/efi/arm-init.c:efi_init() calls efi_memmap_unmap(),
which clears the EFI_MEMMAP bit from efi.flags once efi_init() has
finished with the memory map. This causes efi_mem_attributes() to
return 0 meaning PROT_DEVICE_nGnRnE is the chosen memory type for
all ACPI APEI mappings.
APEI may call this from NMI context, so we can't re-map the EFI
memory map as this may need to allocate virtual address space.
'ghes_ioremap_area' is APEIs cache of virtual address space to
access the buffer once we tell it the memory attributes.
Do as acpi_os_ioremap() does, and consult memblock to learn if
the provided address is memory, or not.

Fixes: 89e44b51cc0d ("arm64, acpi/apei: Implement arch_apei_get_mem_attributes()")
This doesn't code even get built on mainline as HAVE_ACPI_APEI isn't
defined, until https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/10/231 gets merged.
I don't think this should go to stable.
I also took the opportunity to remove some unnecessarily ifdef'd
includes.
