CCing Dan.

This implies that any memory that is E820_TYPE_SOFT_RESERVED that was
reserved via memblock_reserve() will be added via memblock_add_node() as
well, resulting in all such memory getting a memmap allocated right when
booting up, right?

IIRC, there are use cases where that is absolutely not desired.

Am I missing something? (@Dan?)
