[RFC PATCH v3 3/3] pmpool: Mark reserved range as "kernel reserved" in kexec e820 table

Update the logic to classify the persistent memory pool in the kexec e820
table as "kernel reserved" when its corresponding e820 region type is
"System RAM". Restore the pool when its type is "kernel reserved". This
ensures the persistence of the memory pool across kexec operations.
