efi: Fix for_each_efi_memory_desc_in_map() for empty memmaps

Commit:

  78ce248faa3c ("efi: Iterate over efi.memmap in for_each_efi_memory_desc()")

introduced a regression for systems booted with the 'noefi' kernel option.

In particular, I observed an early kernel hang in efi_find_mirror()'s
for_each_efi_memory_desc() call. As we don't have efi memmap on this
system we enter this iterator with the following parameters:

  efi.memmap.map = 0, efi.memmap.map_end = 0, efi.memmap.desc_size = 28

... then for_each_efi_memory_desc_in_map() does the following comparison:

  (md) <= (efi_memory_desc_t *)((m)->map_end - (m)->desc_size);

... where md = 0, (m)->map_end = 0 and (m)->desc_size = 28 but when we subtract
something from a NULL pointer wrap around happens and we end up returning
invalid pointer and crash.

Fix it by using the correct pointer arithmetics.
