4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Daniel Kiper <daniel.kiper@oracle.com>
commit 457ea3f7e97881f937136ce0ba1f29f82b9abdb0 upstream.
Otherwise e.g. Xen dom0 on x86_64 EFI platforms crashes.
In theory we can check EFI_PARAVIRT too, however,
EFI_MEMMAP looks more targeted and covers more cases.
