efi: Allow EFI_MEMORY_XP and EFI_MEMORY_RO both to be cleared
UEFI spec 2.9, p.108, table 4-1 lists the scenario that both attributes are cleared with the description "No memory access protection is possible for Entry". So we can have valid entries where both attributes are cleared, so remove the check. Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Fixes: 10f0d2f577053 ("efi: Implement generic support for the Memory Attributes table") Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
