efi/libstub/arm*: Pass latest memory map to the kernel
As reported by James Morse, the current libstub code involving the annotated memory map only works somewhat correctly by accident, due to the fact that a pool allocation happens to be reused immediately, retaining its former contents on most implementations of the UEFI boot services. Instead of juggling memory maps, which makes the code more complex than it needs to be, simply put placeholder values into the FDT for the memory map parameters, and only write the actual values after ExitBootServices() has been called.
