memmap_init_range() would set page count of all pages, but the free pages count would be reset in __free_pages_core(). There are opposite operations. It's unnecessary and time-consuming when it's MEMINIT_EARLY context. Init page count in reserve_bootmem_region when in MEMINIT_EARLY context, and check the page count before reset it. At the same time, the INIT_LIST_HEAD in reserve_bootmem_region isn't need, as it already done in __init_single_page.
