I actually hoped to move physmap to s390 next to oldmem_type someday :)

__next_physmem_range() is not really necessary, the
for_each_physmem_range() macro can use __next_mem_range() directly, but
I suspect it won't look nice :)

Can you please make __next_physmem_range() static inline if we are to
keep it?

I'd prefer

	... The "memory" and "reserved" types are nicely wrapped 
	with :c:type:`struct memblock`. This structure is statically
        initialized at build time. 

And while on this we can update the "reserved" size to match the code:

	The region arrays are initilily sized to %INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS
 	for "memory" and %INIT_MEMBLOCK_RESERVED_REGIONS for "reserved".
