Subject: [PATCH 32/32] x86/boot/e820: Move index increments outside accessors in e820__update_table()

This kind of code:

	change_point[chg_idx++]->entry  = &entries[idx];

Can be a bit confusing to human readers, and GCC-15 started
warning about these patterns.

Move the index increment outside the accessor.
