[PATCH 1/2] x86 boot: add E820_RESVD_KERN

["Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@intel.com>]

This patch add a new type to E820 table named E820_RESVD_KERN, which
is used for memory area reserved for kernel itself instead of BIOS.

This patch is based on latest x86/master branch of git-x86 tree and
has been tested on i386 and x86_64 platform.
