x86: Fix 'reservetop=' functionality
When specifying the 'reservetop=0xbadc0de' kernel parameter,
the kernel will stop booting due to a early_ioremap bug that
relates to commit 8827247ff.
The root cause of boot failure problem is the value of
'slot_virt[i]' was initialized in setup_arch->early_ioremap_init().
But later in setup_arch, the function 'parse_early_param' will
modify 'FIXADDR_TOP' when 'reservetop=0xbadc0de' being specified.
The simplest fix might be use __fix_to_virt(idx0) to get updated
value of 'FIXADDR_TOP' in '__early_ioremap' instead of reference
old value from slot_virt[slot] directly.
Changelog since v0:
-v1: When reservetop being handled then FIXADDR_TOP get
adjusted, Hence check prev_map then re-initialize slot_virt and
PMD based on new FIXADDR_TOP.
-v2: place fixup_early_ioremap hence call early_ioremap_init in
reserve_top_address to re-initialize slot_virt and
corresponding PMD when parse_reservertop
-v3: move fixup_early_ioremap out of reserve_top_address to make
sure other clients of reserve_top_address like xen/lguest won't
