[PATCH 8/8] arm64/efi: memblock_remove rather than _reserve UEFI reserved RAM

Now that we have the 'physmem' memblock table to keep track of physical
RAM regions, we can start using memblock_remove() to eliminate UEFI
reserved regions from the 'memory' memblock table and the kernel direct
linear mapping entirely. This makes these regions inaccessible entirely,
unless they are remapped explicitly by the UEFI Runtime Services layer,
UEFI configuration table drivers or the ACPI layer.
