efi: Fix for_each_efi_memory_desc_in_map() for empty memmaps
Commit: 78ce248faa3c ("efi: Iterate over efi.memmap in for_each_efi_memory_desc()") introduced a regression for systems booted with the 'noefi' kernel option. In particular, I observed an early kernel hang in efi_find_mirror()'s for_each_efi_memory_desc() call. As we don't have efi memmap on this system we enter this iterator with the following parameters: efi.memmap.map = 0, efi.memmap.map_end = 0, efi.memmap.desc_size = 28 ... then for_each_efi_memory_desc_in_map() does the following comparison: (md) <= (efi_memory_desc_t *)((m)->map_end - (m)->desc_size); ... where md = 0, (m)->map_end = 0 and (m)->desc_size = 28 but when we subtract something from a NULL pointer wrap around happens and we end up returning invalid pointer and crash. Fix it by using the correct pointer arithmetics.
