Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86,mm,64bit: Round up memory boundary for init_memory_mapping_high()


tj pointed out:
	when node does not have 1G aligned boundary, like 128M.
init_memory_mapping_high() could render smaller mapping by 128M on one node,
and 896M on next node with 2M pages instead of 1g page. that could increase
TLB presure.

So if gb page is used, try to align the boundary to 1G before calling
init_memory_mapping_ext(), to make sure only use one 1g entry for that cross
node 1G.
Need to init_meory_mapping_ext() to table tbl_end, to make sure pgtable is on
previous node instead of next node.

on one AMD 512g system with not aligned boundary (extra 768M)
