Can we replace the magic 12 with an EFI_PAGE_SHIFT define?

Still concerned over the lack of checking for clashes with existing
allocations. Ah, no, you trap that below. Sneaky :)

EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES?

A define for the 0xfff value as well? (EFI_PAGE_SIZE - 1)?

This would actually be quite easy to implement correctly now with your
latest changes :)

But I won't insist it needs to be fixed for initial inclusion.

(EFI_PAGE_SIZE -1)

Much prettier with the multi-bank handling. Thanks.
