    xen/arm: during efi boot, improve the check for usable memory
    
    When booting via EFI, the EFI memory map has information about memory
    regions and their type. Improve the check for the type and attribute of
    each memory region to figure out whether it is usable memory or not.
    This patch brings the check on par with Linux v5.5-rc6 and makes more
    memory reusable as normal memory by Xen (except that Linux also reuses
    EFI_PERSISTENT_MEMORY, which we do not).
    
    Specifically, this patch also reuses memory marked as
    EfiLoaderCode/Data, and it uses both Attribute and Type for the check
    (Attribute needs to be EFI_MEMORY_WB).
