When using memmap kernel parameter in EFI boot we should also add to memory map memory regions of runtime services to enable their mapping later.

The double linefeeds are gone. which is Good.
It looks like you ignored the rest of my comments. :(

and for some reason, when I save this from tbird or sylpheed,
all I get is base64 mess. Can anyone tell me how to convert
that to something that is usable?

(I wonder why I didn't see this patch version on lkml...)
