[PATCH v2 1/2] x86: introduce max_possible_pfn

From: Igor Mammedov
Date: Fri Dec 04 2015 - 06:26:01 EST


max_possible_pfn will be used for tracking max possible
PFN for memory that isn't present in E820 table and
could be hotplugged later.

By default max_possible_pfn is initialized with max_pfn,
but a follow up patch will update it with highest PFN of
hotpluggable memory ranges declared in ACPI SRAT table
if any present.
