this basically comes down to this in the specs:
- Allocation requests of Type AllocateMaxAddress allocate any available range
of pages whose uppermost address is less than or equal to the address pointed
to by Memory on input. (this returns EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCEST on loading
slightly large, 710MB, kernel images)
+ Allocation requests of Type AllocateAnyPages allocate any available range of
pages that satisfies the request. On input, the address pointed to by Memory
is ignored.
