On some EFI systems (i.e. Apple) EFI runtime is mapped into higher mem
regions. These EFI mem regions are not always taken into consideration when
max_pfn is calculated in setup.c being that e820_end_of_ram_pfn() only 
counts
mappings types marked as usable (E820_RAM). Currently we only count to 
the last
usable e820 address range and nothing beyond. EFI can be mapped anywhere 
within
e820 and is not always marked as usable e820, and so EFI runtime may be 
missed
if mapped somewhere beyond last usable e820. This patch attempts to resolve
this problem by including all E820 mappings when EFI is enabled, so that
the entire e820 (and EFI runtime area) is included in computing max_pfn. 
Tested
on a MacBook Pro 3.1 and resolves the issue (system now boots 
w/elilo+grub & EFI).
