[PATCH 2/2] x86: remove high_memory check from valid_phys_addr_range

[Frantisek Hrbata <fhrbata@redhat.com>]

There is no need to block read/write access to /dev/mem for phys. addr. above
high_memory for non-system RAM. The only limitation should be
boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits(max phys. addr. size).
