    xen/arm/efi: merge neighboring banks
    
    When booting from U-Boot bootefi, there can be a high number of
    neighboring RAM banks. See for example:
    
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000000000000 - 0000000000bfffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000000c00000 - 0000000000c00fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000000c01000 - 0000000000dfffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000000e00000 - 000000000279dfff
    (XEN) RAM: 000000000279e000 - 00000000029fffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000002a00000 - 0000000008379fff
    (XEN) RAM: 000000000837a000 - 00000000083fffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000008400000 - 0000000008518fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000008519000 - 00000000085fffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000008600000 - 0000000008613fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000008614000 - 00000000097fffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000009800000 - 00000000098a7fff
    (XEN) RAM: 00000000098a8000 - 0000000009dfffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000009e00000 - 0000000009ea7fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000009ea8000 - 000000001fffffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000020000000 - 000000002007ffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000020080000 - 0000000077b17fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077b19000 - 0000000077b2bfff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077b2c000 - 0000000077c8dfff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077c8e000 - 0000000077c91fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077ca7000 - 0000000077caafff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077cac000 - 0000000077caefff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077cd0000 - 0000000077cd2fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077cd4000 - 0000000077cd7fff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000077cd8000 - 000000007bd07fff
    (XEN) RAM: 000000007bd09000 - 000000007fd5ffff
    (XEN) RAM: 000000007fd70000 - 000000007fefffff
    (XEN) RAM: 0000000800000000 - 000000087fffffff
    
    Xen does not currently support boot modules that span multiple banks: at
    least one of the regions get freed twice. The first time from
    setup_mm->populate_boot_allocator, then again from
    discard_initial_modules->fw_unreserved_regions. With a high number of
    banks, it can be difficult to arrange the boot modules in a way that
    avoids spanning across multiple banks.
    
    This small patch merges neighboring regions, to make dealing with them
    more efficient, and to make it easier to load boot modules.
