Hi, hpa

The problem is that:
node1 address rang: [18G, 34G), and the user specifies movable map is [8G, 24G).
We don't know node1's address range before numa init. So we can't prevent
allocating boot memory in the range [24G, 34G).

The movable memory should be classified as a non-RAM type in memblock. What
do you want to say? We don't save type in memblock because we only
add E820_RAM and E820_RESERVED_KERN to memblock.


We either need to keep the type or not add it to the memblocks.
