It seen like a temporary workaround after commit 7b78d6438a2b3
("efi_loader: Reserve unaccessible memory") to avoid warnings.

And it is working because in the default memory mapping
OP-TEE base address == RAM_TOP and the rest of memory is
used by OP-TEE tagged "no map" (protected by firewall)


Reviewed-by: Patrick Delaunay <patrick.delaunay at foss.st.com>

FYI: workaround because  the memory above ram_top is
      "already occupied by firmware" =
      and it is OP-TEE for STM32MP2 platform.

     For me the LMB type used by EFI in not correct for OP-TEE usage region
     with "no-map" tag in device tree=  see boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions()
     for linux DT parsing

     and we have no way to indicated this LMB tag= LMB_NOMAP with EFI stack
     (with enum efi_memory_type ?)


     EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA => doesn't means NOMAP flag for LMB....
     so something is missing in EFI side like EFI_BOOT_NOMAP  to be used in board
     implementation of efi_add_known_memory() ?


Thanks
