[PATCH] RISC-V: Consider sparse memory while removing unusable memory

Currently, any usable memory area beyond page_offset is removed by adding the
memory sizes from each memblock. That may not work for sparse memory
as memory regions can be very far apart resulting incorrect removal of some
usable memory.

Just use the start of the first memory block and the end of the last memory
block to compute the size of the total memory that can be used.
