[PATCH v4 1/4] of: reserved_mem: Restruture how the reserved memory regions are processed

The current implementation processes the reserved memory regions in two
stages which are done with two separate functions within the
early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() function.

Within the two stages of processing, the reserved memory regions are
broken up into two groups which are processed differently:
i) Statically-placed reserved memory regions
i.e. regions defined with a static start address and size using the
     "reg" property in the DT.
ii) Dynamically-placed reserved memory regions.
i.e. regions defined by specifying a range of addresses where they can
     be placed in memory using the "alloc_ranges" and "size" properties
     in the DT.

Stage 1: fdt_scan_reserved_mem()
This stage of the reserved memory processing is used to scan through the
reserved memory nodes defined in the devicetree and do the following on
each of the nodes:

1) If the node represents a statically-placed reserved memory region,
   i.e. it is defined using the "reg" property:
   - Call memblock_reserve() or memblock_mark_nomap() as needed.
   - Add the information for the reserved region to the reserved_mem array.
     eg: fdt_reserved_mem_save_node(node, name, base, size);

2) If the node represents a dynamically-placed reserved memory region,
   i.e. it is defined using "alloc-ranges" and "size" properties:
   - Add the information for the region to the reserved_mem array with
     the starting address and size set to 0.
     eg: fdt_reserved_mem_save_node(node, name, 0, 0);

Stage 2: fdt_init_reserved_mem()
This stage of the reserved memory processing is used to iterate through
the reserved_mem array which was populated in stage 1 and do the
following on each of the entries:

1) If the entry represents a statically-placed reserved memory region:
   - Call the region specific init function.
2) If the entry represents a dynamically-placed reserved memory region:
   - Call __reserved_mem_alloc_size() which is used to allocate memory
     for the region using memblock_phys_alloc_range(), and call
     memblock_mark_nomap() on the allocated region if the region is
     specified as a no-map region.
   - Call the region specific init function.

On architectures such as arm64, the dynamic allocation of the
reserved_mem array needs to be done after the page tables have been
setup because memblock allocated memory is not writable until then. This
means that the reserved_mem array will not be available to store any
reserved memory information until after the page tables have been setup.

It is possible to call memblock_reserve() and memblock_mark_nomap() on
the statically-placed reserved memory regions and not need to save them
to the reserved_mem array until later. This is because all the
information we need is present in the devicetree.
Dynamically-placed reserved memory regions on the other hand get assigned
a start address only at runtime, and since memblock_reserve() and
memblock_mark_nomap() need to be called before the memory mappings are
created, the allocation needs to happen before the page tables are setup.

To make it easier to handle dynamically-placed reserved memory regions
before the page tables are setup, this patch makes changes to the steps
above to process the reserved memory regions in the following ways:

Step 1: fdt_scan_reserved_mem()
This stage of the reserved memory processing is used to scan through the
reserved memory nodes defined in the devicetree and do the following on
each of the nodes:

1) If the node represents a statically-placed reserved memory region,
   i.e. it is defined using the "reg" property:
   - Call memblock_reserve() or memblock_mark_nomap() as needed.

2) If the node represents a dynamically-placed reserved memory region,
   i.e. it is defined using "alloc-ranges" and "size" properties:
   - Call __reserved_mem_alloc_size() which will:
     i) Allocate memory for the reserved memory region.
     ii) Call memblock_mark_nomap() as needed.
     Note: There is no need to explicitly call memblock_reserve() here
     because it is already called by memblock when the memory for the
     region is being allocated.
     iii) Save the information for the region in the reserved_mem array.

Step 2: fdt_init_reserved_mem()
This stage of the reserved memory processing is used to:

1) Add the information for the statically-placed reserved memory into
   the reserved_mem array.

2) Iterate through all the entries in the array and call the region
   specific init function for each of them.
