x86/boot: Run reserve_bios_regions() after we initialize the memory map

reserve_bios_regions() is a quirk that reserves memory that we might
otherwise think is available.  There's no need to run it so early,
and running it before we have the memory map initialized with its
non-quirky inputs makes it hard to make reserve_bios_regions() more
intelligent.

Move it right after we populate the memblock state.
