Subject: [PATCH v2] memblock: export memblock_free() to free reserved memory.

On architectures that support the preservation of memblock metadata
after __init, allow drivers to call memblock_free() to free a
reservation configured in dts. This is a hack to support the
freeing of bootsplash reservations passed to Linux by the bootloader.
