efi_reserve_memory() states that memory marked with "no-map" shall not be accessed by the UEFI payload. Make sure efi_get_memory_map() honors this.
This helps the case when booting vexpress_ca9x4 under QEMU. Because the kernel wants to use an address in the lowest 128MiB of the range, but this range is reserved with "no-map", the kernel complains that it can not allocate the low memory it needs. In reality the actual usable memory starts much higher, which is reflected correctly in the memory map after this fix.
