So arch code could decide the way to reserve the ibft.

And We should reserve ibft as early as possible, instead of BOOTMEM stage,
in case the table is in RAM range and is not reserved by BIOS.

move that just sfter find_smp_config()

Also when CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, We will not have reserve_bootmem() anymore
