Can you please provide some rationales _why_ you think setup_bootmem()
should be moved elsewhere?  Because it is not apparent to me and I
cannot read your mind.  I'm not against it given good enough reasons.
After all, _technically_ it doesn't make one iota of difference, but I
don't want to change it just because you don't like it and I don't
think you want that either, so _please_ give me some explanations
about what you want and _why_.  It's not like we're involved in a
romantic relationship and even when I'm in one I suck at that implied
communication thing.

Thanks.
