kexec_file: do not add extra alignment to efi memmap

Chun-Yi reported a kernel warning message below:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at ../mm/early_ioremap.c:182 early_iounmap+0x4f/0x12c()
  early_iounmap(ffffffffff200180, 00000118) [0] size not consistent 00000120

The problem is x86 kexec_file_load adds extra alignment to the efi
memmap: in bzImage64_load():

        efi_map_sz = efi_get_runtime_map_size();
        efi_map_sz = ALIGN(efi_map_sz, 16);

And __efi_memmap_init maps with the size including the alignment bytes
but efi_memmap_unmap use nr_maps * desc_size which does not include the
extra bytes.

The alignment in kexec code is only needed for the kexec buffer internal
use Actually kexec should pass exact size of the efi memmap to 2nd
kernel.
