When kernel parameter 'mem=x' is specified by the command line,
probably the ACPI memory regions from firmware will beyond the
scope of the physical memory space after limited, if we don't add
back those regions into memblock in this case, then the ACPI core
will map it as device memory type. Since the ACPI core will produce
non-alignment access when parsing the AML data stream, alignment
exception will be generated upon the device memory mapped region.
Below is an alignment exception output observed on ARM platform
with acpi enabled:

[ 1.366691] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b
With 'efi=debug', we can see those ACPI regions from firmware as:
[ 0.000000] efi: 0x0083ff1b5000-0x0083ff1c2fff [ACPI Reclaim Memory| | | | | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*
[ 0.000000] efi: 0x0083ff223000-0x0083ff224fff [ACPI Memory NVS | | | | | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*
This patch is trying to add back those regions into memblock, make
ACPI core map it as normal memory instead of device memory type.
