[PATCH v2 2/2] x86/setup: merge several reservations of start of the memory

[Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the first several pages are reserved both to avoid leaking their
contents on systems with L1TF and to avoid corrupting BIOS memory.

Merge the two memory reservations.
