[PATCH 1/2] x86_64-efi: Ensure that memory is mapped when allocating

From: Vladimir Serbinenko This is a replacement workaround for EFIs that do not map memory above 4G and allows to increase maximum available address to 128TiB --- grub-core/Makefile.core.def| 1 + grub-core/kern/efi/mm.c| 10 grub-core/kern/x86_64/efi/mm.c | 84

[PATCH 2/2] kern/efi/mm: ask for more that 4GB if we need it

earlier version of this didn't count for other archs and actually mapping the unmapped memory above 4GB. this builds on top of the previous patch (by phcoder) in the series and hopefully will do all of the above. Signed-off-by: Paymon MARANDI --- grub-core/kern/efi/mm.c | 15 -
