From: zhouxianrong <zhouxianrong@xxxxxxxxxx>
just like freeing no-map area's memmap (gaps of memblock.memory)
we could free reserved area's memmap (areas of memblock.reserved)
as well only when user of reserved area indicate that we can do
this in drivers. that is, user of reserved area know how to
use the reserved area who could not memblock_free or free_reserved_xxx
the reserved area and regard the area as raw pfn usage by kernel.
the patch supply a way to users who want to utilize the memmap
memory corresponding to raw pfn reserved areas as many as possible.
users can do this by memblock_mark_raw_pfn interface which mark the
reserved area as raw pfn and tell free_unused_memmap that this area's
memmap could be freeed.
