Subject: x86: revert wrong memblock current limit setting

Dave reported big numa system booting is broken.

It turns out
| commit 5b6e529521d35e1bcaa0fe43456d1bbb335cae5d
| Author: Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@xxxxxx>

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

set limit to low wrongly.

max_low_pfn_mapped is different from max_pfn_mapped.
max_low_pfn_mapped is always under 4G.

That will memblock_alloc_nid all go under 4G.

Revert 5b6e529521d35e1bca to fix a no-boot regression which was triggered
by 457ff1de2d247d ("lib/swiotlb.c: use memblock apis for early memory
allocations").
