For now, users can disable this functionality by not specifying the boot option.
Later, we will post SRAT support, and add another option value "movablecore_map=acpi"

I still think the option "movablecore_map" is uglier than hell. "core" could just as easily refer to CPU cores there, but it is a memory mem. "movablemem" seems more appropriate.

Again, without SRAT I consider this patchset to be largely useless for anything other than prototyping work.
