Subject: [PATCHv2 1/7] mm: Add support for unaccepted memory

UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance. Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, requiring memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific for the Virtual Machine
platform.

Accepting memory is costly and it makes VMM allocate memory for the
accepted guest physical address range. It's better to postpone memory
acceptance until memory is needed. It lowers boot time and reduces
memory overhead.

Support of such memory requires a few changes in core-mm code:

  - memblock has to accept memory on allocation;

  - page allocator has to accept memory on the first allocation of the
    page;

Memblock change is trivial.

The page allocator is modified to accept pages on the first allocation.
PageOffline() is used to indicate that the page requires acceptance.
The flag is currently used by hotplug and ballooning. Such pages are not
available to the page allocator.

Architecture has to provide three helpers if it wants to support
unaccepted memory:

 - accept_memory() makes a range of physical addresses accepted.

 - maybe_set_page_offline() marks a page PageOffline() if it requires
   acceptance. Used during boot to put pages on free lists.

 - accept_and_clear_page_offline() makes a page accepted and clears
   PageOffline().
