efi_call_phys_prelog() sets up a 1:1 mapping of the physical address range in swapper_pg_dir. Instead of replacing then restoring entries in swapper_pg_dir we should be using initial_page_table which already contains the 1:1 mapping. It's safe to blindly switch back to swapper_pg_dir in the epilog because the physical EFI routines are only called before efi_enter_virtual_mode(), e.g. before any user processes have been forked. Therefore, we don't need to track which pgd was in %cr3 when we entered the prelog. The previous code actually contained a bug because it assumed that the kernel was loaded at a physical address within the first 8MB of ram, usually at 0x100000. However, this isn't the case with a CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y kernel which could have been loaded anywhere in the physical address space. Also delete the ancient (and bogus) comments about the page table being restored after the lock is released. There is no locking.
