There are a lot of places in the kernel which iterate through an EFI memory map. Most of these places use essentially the same for-loop code. This patch adds a for_each_efi_memory_desc() helper to clean up all of the existing duplicate code and avoid more in the future.

Err, what? I just picked up your previous patch ("x86/efi: Create memory
map iteration helper") which adds this chunk, and I didn't see a follow
up email telling me not to pick it up.
What's the plan?
