[PATCH 4/4] efi/arm64: unmap the kernel while executing UEFI services

Now that all UEFI runtime service wrappers ensure that byref
arguments are moved into the UEFI marshalling buffer (which
is not part of the kernel mapping), we can proceed and unmap
the kernel while UEFI runtime service calls are in progress.
This is done by setting the EPD1 bit and flushing the TLB of
the local CPU. This makes it independent of KPTI or whether
non-global mappings are being used.
