[PATCH 1/1] efi/libstub: DRAM base calculation

From: Heinrich Schuchardt
Date: Fri Sep 04 2020 - 11:50:51 EST


In the memory map the regions with the lowest addresses may be of type
EFI_RESERVED_TYPE. The reserved areas may be discontinuous relative to the
rest of the memory. So for calculating the maximum loading address for the
device tree and the initial ramdisk image these reserved areas should not
be taken into account.
