This flag changes the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because it's necessary to unreserve the bootmem if a collision is discovered in the middle of the area, a rwlock is introduced: only one BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE caller is possible, but multiple BOOTMEM_DEFAULT callers. But if a BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE caller is in reserve_bootmem_core(), no BOOTMEM_DEFAULT callers are allowd. IMPORTANT: The patch is only proof of concept. This means that it's only for x86 and breaks other architectures. If the patch is ok, I'll change all other architectures, too.
