Andy Lutomirski 5ff3e2c3c3 x86/boot: Rework reserve_real_mode() to allow multiple tries
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.
