    ARC: adjust memblock_reserve of kernel memory · 377f080a

    commit a3010a04 upstream.
    
    In setup_arch_memory we reserve the memory area wherein the kernel
    is located. Current implementation may reserve more memory than
    it actually required in case of CONFIG_LINUX_LINK_BASE is not
    equal to CONFIG_LINUX_RAM_BASE. This happens because we calculate
    start of the reserved region relatively to the CONFIG_LINUX_RAM_BASE
    and end of the region relatively to the CONFIG_LINUX_RAM_BASE.
    
    For example in case of HSDK board we wasted 256MiB of physical memory:
    ------------------->8------------------------------
    Memory: 770416K/1048576K available (5496K kernel code,
        240K rwdata, 1064K rodata, 2200K init, 275K bss,
        278160K reserved, 0K cma-reserved)
    ------------------->8------------------------------
    
    Fix that.
