arm64: memblock: don't permit memblock resizing until linear mapping is up
Bhupesh reports that having numerous memblock reservations at early boot may result in the following crash: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff80003ffe0000 ... Call trace: __memcpy+0x110/0x180 memblock_add_range+0x134/0x2e8 memblock_reserve+0x70/0xb8 memblock_alloc_base_nid+0x6c/0x88 __memblock_alloc_base+0x3c/0x4c memblock_alloc_base+0x28/0x4c memblock_alloc+0x2c/0x38 early_pgtable_alloc+0x20/0xb0 paging_init+0x28/0x7f8 This is caused by the fact that we permit memblock resizing before the linear mapping is up, and so the memblock_reserved() array is moved into memory that is not mapped yet. So let's ensure that this crash can no longer occur, by deferring to call to memblock_allow_resize() to after the linear mapping has been created.
