No, the crash is happening within the ResetSystem() runtime service.
Checkout the RIP, it's in the direct mapping region (0xffff8800.....).

It looks like your firmware is trying to access physical addresses. Can
you build a kernel from the 'next' branch at,

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi.git

That branch includes Borislav's 1:1 mapping work and may fix your issue.
