[RFC PATCH 3/4] x86/mm: set allowed range for memblock allocator

[Pingfan Liu]

Due to the incoming divergence of x86_32 and x86_64, there is requirement
to set the allowed allocating range at the early boot stage.
This patch also includes minor change to remove redundat cond check, refer
to memblock_find_in_range_node(), memblock_find_in_range() has already
protect itself from the case: start > end.
