[PATCH] MIPS: OCTEON: use the free memory below the kernel

[Orgad Shaneh <orgads@gmail.com>]

plat_mem_setup() asks bootmem only for memory above _end. The kernel
is loaded at 0x1100000, so whatever bootmem has free below _text is
never added to memblock. On a CN6335 board with the Cavium bootloader
that is 14MB, 0x200000-0xffffff:

  before: node 0: [mem 0x0000000001100000-0x0000000001cc6fff]
  after:  node 0: [mem 0x0000000000200000-0x0000000000ffffff]
          node 0: [mem 0x0000000001100000-0x0000000001cc6fff]

Claim it before the main loop, in 1MB pieces since the holes there are
small and unaligned. It counts towards max_memory like the rest, and a
piece inside the crash kernel range, which is added on its own, is
skipped as the main loop does. bootmem never hands out what the
bootloader reserved (the exception vectors, its named blocks, the
kernel image itself), so only free memory is claimed.

Tested on mips-next with cavium_octeon_defconfig (KEXEC=y, CRASH_DUMP=n)
on a CN6335 board, 4GB, Cavium U-Boot 1.1.1: "Memory:" goes from
4023588K/4169492K to 4037924K/4183828K available. Built with KEXEC=n
and CRASH_DUMP=y as well.
