There may be no initrd at all, so the condition here would rather become

	if (phys_initrd_start)

I also wonder what is the reason to keep memstart_addr randomization and
initrd setup interleaved?

What we have now is roughly:

1) set memstart_addr
2) enforce memory_limit
3) reserve initrd
4) randomize memstart_addr
5) reserve text + data
6) reserve initrd again and set virtual addresses of initrd_{start,end}

Maybe it's possible to merge (3) into (6) ?
