Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86 boot: early_res_to_e820

This patch reserves some memory areas of early_res in E820 as
E820_RESVD_KERN. This is used mainly on i386, for some memory area
from boot-loader and in highmem, such as linked list of setup_data,
EFI memory map, etc.

This patch is based on latest x86/master branch of git-x86 tree and
has been tested on i386 and x86_64 platform.

Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@...el.com>
