This patch uses the /sys/firmware/memmap interface provided in the last patch
on the x86 architecture when E820 is used. The patch copies the E820
memory map very early, and registers the E820 map afterwards via
firmware_map_add_early().

Ying Huang would like setup_data to be reserved, but not included in the
no save range.
Here we try to modify the e820 table to reserve that range early.
also add that in early_res in case bootloader messes up with the ramdisk.
other solution would be
1. add early_res_to_highmem...
2. early_res_to_e820...
but they could reserve another type memory wrongly, if early_res has some
resource reserved early, and not needed later, but it is not removed from
early_res in time. Like the RAMDISK (already handled).

This is a preparatory patch for the next patch in series.
Moves some code from e820_setup_gap to a new function e820_search_gap.
This patch is a part of a bug fix where we walk the ACPI table to calculate
a gap for PCI optional devices.
v1->v2: Patch on top of tip/master.
Fixes a bug introduced in the last patch about the typeof "last".
Also the new function e820_search_gap now returns if we found a gap in
e820_map.

Add support for overlapping early memory reservations.
In general, they still can't overlap, and will panic
with "Overlapping early reservations" if they do overlap.
But if a memory range is reserved with the new call:
reserve_early_overlap_ok()
rather than with the usual call:
reserve_early()
then subsequent early reservations are allowed to overlap.
This new reserve_early_overlap_ok() call is only used in one
place so far, which is the "BIOS reserved" reservation for the
the EBDA region, which out of Paranoia reserves more than what
the BIOS might have specified, and which thus might overlap with
another legitimate early memory reservation (such as, perhaps,
the EFI memmap.)

Because of the size limits of struct boot_params (zero page), the
maximum number of E820 memory map entries can be passed to kernel is
128. As pointed by Paul Jackson, there is some machine produced by SGI
with so many nodes that the number of E820 memory map entries is more
than 128. To enabling Linux kernel on these system, a new setup data
type named SETUP_E820_EXT is defined to pass additional memory map
entries to Linux kernel.
This patch is based on x86/auto-latest branch of git-x86 tree and has
been tested on x86_64 and i386 platform.

The map size counter passed into, and back out of, sanitize_e820_map(),
was an eight bit type (char or u8), as derived from its origins in
legacy BIOS E820 structures. This patch changes that type to an 'int',
to allow this sanitize routine to also be used on larger maps (larger
than the 256 count that fits in a char). The legacy BIOS E820 interface
of course does not change; that remains at 8 bits for this count, holding
up to E820MAX == 128 entries. But the kernel internals can handle more
when those additional memory map entries are passed from the BIOS via
EFI interfaces.

Extend internal boot time memory tables to allow for up to
three entries per node, which may be larger than the 128 E820MAX
entries handled by the legacy BIOS E820 interface. The EFI
interface, if present, is capable of passing memory map
entries for these larger node counts.
This patch requires an earlier patch that rewrote code depending
on these array sizes from using E820MAX explicitly to size loops,
to instead using ARRAY_SIZE() of the applicable array.
Another patch following this one will provide the code to pick
up additional memory entries passed via the EFI interface from
the BIOS and insert them in the following, now enlarged, arrays.

This patch is motivated by a subsequent patch which will allow for more
memory map entries on EFI supported systems than can be passed via the x86
legacy BIOS E820 interface. The legacy interface is limited to E820MAX ==
128 memory entries, and that "E820MAX" manifest constant was used as the
size for several arrays and loops over those arrays.
The primary change in this patch is to change code loop sizes over those
arrays from using the constant E820MAX, to using the ARRAY_SIZE() macro
evaluated for the array being looped. That way, a subsequent patch can
change the size of some of these arrays, without breaking this code.
This patch also adds a parameter to the sanitize_e820_map() routine,
which had an implicit size for the array passed it of E820MAX entries.
This new parameter explicitly passes the size of said array. Once again,
this will allow a subsequent patch to change that array size for some
calls to sanitize_e820_map() without breaking the code.
As part of enhancing the sanitize_e820_map() interface this way, I further
combined the unnecessarily distinct x86_32 and x86_64 declarations for
this routine into a single, commonly used, declaration.
This patch in itself should make no difference to the resulting kernel
binary.
