Please check attached one that clean up the highmap tail...

Subject: [RFC PATCH] x86, 64bit: cleanup highmap tail near partial 2M range

1. should use _brk_end instead of &end, as we only use partial of
   brk.
2. [_brk_end, pm_end) page range is already converted mem. and
   is not wasted.
3. add cleanup_highmap_tail for [_brk_end, pm_end).

Kernel Layout:
[    0.000000]   .text: [0x01000000-0x0200d5c8]
[    0.000000] .rodata: [0x02200000-0x02a1cfff]
[    0.000000]   .data: [0x02c00000-0x02e50e7f]
[    0.000000]   .init: [0x02e52000-0x03212fff]
[    0.000000]    .bss: [0x03221000-0x0437bfff]
[    0.000000]    .brk: [0x0437c000-0x043a1fff]

Actually used brk:
[    0.272959] memblock_reserve: [0x0000000437c000-0x00000004382fff]
flags 0x0 BRK
