[PATCH v4] EFI: free unused boot mem in at least some cases



Address at least the primary reason why 52bba67f8b87 ("efi/boot: Don't
free ebmalloc area at all") was put in place: Make xen_in_range() aware
of the freed range. This is in particular relevant for EFI-enabled
builds not actually running on EFI, as the entire range will be unused
in this case.

Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx>
---
v4: Address PV shim breakage (stub function also needed adjustment).
v3: Don't free the memory twice.
v2: Also adjust the two places where comments point out that they need
    to remain in sync with xen_in_range(). Add assertions to
    xen_in_range().
---
The remaining issue could be addressed too, by making the area 2M in
size and 2M-aligned.
