[PATCH] x86/mm: Re-use the early_ioremap fixed area

[Minfei Huang]

The FIXADDR_BOOT area is only used during boot for early_ioremap, and
it is unused when the ioremap is functional. vmalloc becomes available
after early boot so the FIXADDR_BOOT_START area is available for reuse.

The virtual address is more precious on i386, especially turning on the
high memory. So we can reuse the virtual address whichever we can.

The macros of FIXADDR_BOOT_START and FIXADDR_BOOT_SIZE donot use any
more.
