------------------------------------------------------
Subject: i386: initialize end-of-memory variables as early as possible
From: "Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@xxxxxxxxxx>

Move initialization of all memory end variables to as early as possible, so
that dependent code doesn't need to check whether these variables have
already been set.

Change the range check in kunmap_atomic to actually make use of this so
that the no-mapping-estabished path (under CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM) gets used
only when the address is inside the lowmem area (and BUG() otherwise).
