s390/boot: fix mem_detect extended area allocation
Allocation of mem_detect extended area was not considered neither in commit 9641b8cc ("s390/ipl: read IPL report at early boot") nor in commit b2d24b97 ("s390/kernel: add support for kernel address space layout randomization (KASLR)"). As a result mem_detect extended theoretically may overlap with ipl report or randomized kernel image position. But as mem_detect code will allocate extended area only upon exceeding 255 online regions (which should alternate with offline memory regions) it is not seen in practice. To make sure mem_detect extended area does not overlap with ipl report or randomized kernel position extend usage of "safe_addr". Make initrd handling and mem_detect extended area allocation code move it further right and make KASLR takes in into consideration as well.
