The following quick hack works.. something similar could probably be
smashed in to ""

 #ifdef CONFIG_EFI_LOADER_BOUNCE_BUFFER
--------

With that I'm at least getting further..  efi_allocate_pool()
eventually fails, possibly making every small memory allocation page
aligned means that 256m isn't enough..
