riscv/kexec: load initrd high in available memory
When initrd is loaded low, the secondary kernel fails like this: INITRD: 0xdc581000+0x00eef000 overlaps in-use memory region This initrd load address corresponds to the _end symbol, but the reservation is aligned on PMD_SIZE, as explained by a comment in setup_bootmem(). It is technically possible to align the initrd load address accordingly, leaving a hole between the end of kernel and the initrd, but it is much simpler to allocate the initrd top-down.
