The reason for looping twice here is in the comment right above the
if-statement; "Delay allocation of the dynamically-placed regions until
after all other statically-placed regions have been reserved or marked
as nomap".

If we call "__reserved_mem_alloc_size()" at this point then there is a
possibility of allocating memory from one of the statically-placed
reserved memory regions since not all of them have been marked as
reserved or nomap yet.

True, there is no need for this anymore.
