Forgot to mention that I performed this simplification in the commit I 
applied:

+       /*
+        * To Do: Remove this check after adding functionality to unmap EFI boot
+        * services code/data regions from direct mapping area because
+        * "efi=old_map" maps EFI regions in swapper_pg_dir.
+        */
+       if (efi_enabled(EFI_OLD_MEMMAP))
+               return;
+
+       /*
+        * EFI mixed mode has all RAM mapped to access arguments while making
+        * EFI runtime calls, hence don't unmap EFI boot services code/data
+        * regions.
+        */
+       if (!efi_is_native())
+               return;

Thanks,

        Ingo
