Subject: [PATCH] x86_32: trim memory by updating e820

[PATCH] x86_32: trim memory by updating e820

need to be applied after the patch for x86_64 version mtrr fix e820 v2.

when mtrr is not covering all e820 table, need to trim the ram, need to update e820

reuse some code for x86_64

here need to add early_identify_cpu for x86_32, and move mtrr_bp_init early

compiled only, need someone test it.
