That's correct. I think not calling SetVirtualAddressMap() and just
using a 1:1 mapping is far safer (having looked at what tianocore does
for SetVirtualAddressMap()). The chances are that all the UEFI bioses
are only tested with windows, so the pointer chases it has to do to
switch address maps only work with the operations windows does.
