In preparation for fixing efi_memmap_alloc() leaks, add support for recording whether the memmap was dynamically allocated from slab, memblock, or is the original physical memmap provided by the platform. Given this tracking is established in efi_memmap_alloc() and needs to be carried to efi_memmap_install(), use 'struct efi_memory_map_data' to convey the flags. Some small cleanups result from this reorganization, specifically the removal of local variables for 'phys' and 'size' that are already tracked in @data.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
