x86: memblock: set current limit to max low memory address

The memblock current limit value is used to limit early boot
memory allocations below max low memory address by deafult, as
the kernel can access only to the low memory.

Hence, set memblock current limit value to the max mapped low
memory address instead of max mapped memory address.
