I would prefer that we had a separate file for the EFI runtime services
page tables. As you mention, they are distinct from the kernel and not
always live (which is also the case for the idmap, for example).

I have some local patches atop of v4.3 that librify the dumping code and
add a separate file for EFI [1]. I spotted a couple other things in
doing that (e.g. that we need to pad addresses more).

Is it worth cleaning that up?

Thanks,
Mark.
