Currently, the EFI stub will disable PCI DMA as the very last thing it
does before calling ExitBootServices(), to avoid interfering with the
firmware's normal operation as much as possible.
However, the stub will invoke DisconnectController() on all endpoints
downstream of the PCI bridges it disables, and this may affect the
layout of the EFI memory map, making it substantially more likely that
ExitBootServices() will fail the first time around, and that the EFI
memory map needs to be reloaded.
This, in turn, increases the likelihood that the slack space we
allocated is insufficient (and we can no longer allocate memory via boot
services after having called ExitBootServices() once), causing the
second call to GetMemoryMap (and therefore the boot) to fail. This makes
the PCI DMA disable feature a bit more fragile than it already is, so
let's make it more robust, by allocating the space for the EFI memory
map after disabling PCI DMA.

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.
