Subject: [PATCH] x86: move init_gbpages() to setup_arch()

From: Pekka Enberg <penberg@...helsinki.fi>

The init_gbpages() function is conditionally called from init_memory_mapping()
function. There are two call-sites where this 'after_bootmem' condition can be
true: setup_arch() and mem_init() via pci_iommu_alloc().

Therefore, it's safe to move the call to init_gbpages() to setup_arch() as it's
always called before mem_init().
