    x86/boot: Rework reserve_real_mode() to allow multiple tries · 5ff3e2c3
    Andy Lutomirski authored
    If reserve_real_mode() fails, panicing immediately means we're
    doomed.  Make it safe to try more than once to allocate the
    trampoline:
    
     - Degrade a failure from panic() to pr_info().  (If we make it to
       setup_real_mode() without reserving the trampoline, we'll panic
       them.)
    
     - Factor out helpers so that platform code can supply a specific
       address to try.
    
     - Warn if reserve_real_mode() is called after we're done with the
       memblock allocator.  If that were to happen, we would behave
       unpredictably.
