Ok, thanks.

hpa, so, for the struct efi_mapping thing to work, I will have to grep
dmesg of the first kernel to get an output like the one below, filter
the runtime regions so that I can build the struct efi_mapping array of
mem regions which I pass on to the second, kexec kernel with setup_data.

Unless you have a better idea, of course... :)
