>From code review the EFI memory map handling has a couple of problems:

- The test for _WB memory was reversed so it would set cache able memory
to uncached
- It would always set a wrong uninitialized zero address to uncached
(so I suspect it always set the first few pages in phys memory to uncached,
that is why it may have gone unnoticed) 
- It would call set_memory_x() on a fixmap address that it doesn't
handle correct.
- Some other problems I commented in the code (but was unable to solve
for now) 

I changed the ioremaps to set the correct caching attributes
and also corrected the ordering so it looks roughly correct now.

This is an RFC, because I don't have a EFI system to test.
