Hello Haojian,
Apologies for the noise ...
Could you please try *this* version v3 instead? v2 is just the same patch as
before ...

-------8<---------
When allocating memory for the kernel image, try the AllocatePages()
boot service to obtain memory at the preferred offset of
'dram_base + TEXT_OFFSET', and only revert to efi_low_alloc() if that
fails. This is the only way to allocate at the base of DRAM if DRAM
starts at 0x0, since efi_low_alloc() refuses to allocate at 0x0.

v3:
- set *reserve_addr before calling AllocatePages()
