Yes, thanks for catching this.
 
@Ard, can you please pick the fix:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/efi: efi_unmap_boot_services: fix calculation of
 ranges_to_free size

ranges_to_free array should have enough room to store the entire EFI
memmap plus an extra element for NULL entry.
The calculation of this array size wrongly adds 1 to the overall size
instead of adding 1 to the number of elements.

Add parentheses to properly size the array.
