Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] x86: introduce max_possible_pfn

max_possible_pfn will be used for tracking max possible
PFN for memory that isn't present in E820 table and
could be hotplugged later.

By default max_possible_pfn is initialized with max_pfn,
but a follow up patch will update it with highest PFN of
hotpluggable memory ranges declared in ACPI SRAT table
if any present.
