[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 0/2] efi_loader: Patch RTS at ExitBootServices

While discussing something compeltely different, Ard pointed out
that it might be legal to omit calling SetVirtualAddressMap altogether.

While that sounds great, we currently rely on that call to remove
all function pointers to code that we do not support outside of
boot services.

So let's patch out those bits already on the call to ExitBootServices,
so that we can successfully run even when an OS chooses to omit
any call to SetVirtualAddressMap.
