Hi Boon Leong.

I'll have a think about that :)

Just on imr_del() though, it does support removal by way of index.

+static void __init intel_galileo_imr_init(void)
+{
+	unsigned long base  = virt_to_phys(&_text);
+	unsigned long size = virt_to_phys(&_sinittext) - base - IMR_ALIGN;
+	int i, ret;
+
+	/* Tear down all existing unlocked IMRs */
+	for (i = 0; i <= QUARK_X1000_IMR_NUM; i++)
+		imr_del(i, 0, 0);

That's what the platform code has to do for every unlocked IMR, to make 
sure there are no stale IMRs left that could conflict with the EFI 
memory map !
