Title:
  Allocation 2GB of EfiRuntimeServiceData breaks kernel boot

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Allocation of 2GB (in EFI application) as EfiRuntimeServiceData ubuntu 14.04 beta 2 (but have been noticed in previous versions too) makes the kernel hang. No early printks could be seen.
  Most suspicious call chain is:

  efi_enter_virtual_mode() -> efi_map_region() -> __map_region() ->
  kernel_map_pages_in_pgd() -> __change_page_attr_set_clr () ->
  __change_page_attr() -> __cpa_process_fault().
