x86/boot/e820: Rename e820_table_saved to e820_table_firmware and improve the description



So the 'e820_table_saved' is a bit of a misnomer that hides its real purpose.

At first sight the name suggests that it's some sort save/restore mechanism,
as this is how we typically name such facilities in the kernel.

But that is not so, e820_table_saved is the original firmware version of the
e820 table, not modified by the kernel. This table is displayed in the
/sys/firmware/memmap file, and it's also used by the hibernation code to
calculate a physical memory layout MD5 fingerprint checksum which is
invariant of the kernel.

So rename it to 'e820_table_firmware' and update all the comments to better
describe the main e820 data strutures.

Also rename:

  'initial_e820_table_saved'  =>  'e820_table_firmware_init'
  'e820_update_range_saved'   =>  'e820_update_range_firmware'

... to better match the new nomenclature.

No change in functionality.

/*
 * The e820 table is the array that gets modified e.g. with command line parameters
 * and that is also registered with modifications in the kernel resource tree
 * with the iomem_resource as parent.
 * The firmware and bootloader passes us an E820 table that is the primary
 * physical memory layout description available about x86 systems.
 *
 * The e820_table_saved is directly saved after the BIOS-provided memory map is
 * copied. It doesn't get modified afterwards. It's registered for the
 * /sys/firmware/memmap interface.
 * The kernel takes the e820 memory layout and optionally modifies it with
 * quirks and other tweaks, and feeds that into the generic Linux memory
 * allocation code routines via a platform independent interface (memblock, etc.).
 *
 * That memory map is not modified and is used as base for kexec. The kexec'd
 * kernel should get the same memory map as the firmware provides. Then the
 * user can e.g. boot the original kernel with mem=1G while still booting the
 * next kernel with full memory.
 * We organize the E820 table into two main data structures:
 *
 * - 'e820_table_firmware': the original firmware version passed to us by the
 *   bootloader - not modified by the kernel. We use this to:
 *
 *       - inform the user about the firmware's notion of memory layout
 *         via /sys/firmware/memmap
 *
 *       - the hibernation code uses it to generate a kernel-independent MD5
 *         fingerprint of the physical memory layout of a system.
 *
 *       - kexec, which is a bootloader in disguise, uses the original e820
 *         layout to pass to the kexec-ed kernel. This way the original kernel
 *         can have a restricted e820 map while the kexec()-ed kexec-kernel
 *         can have access to full memory - etc.
 *
 * - 'e820_table': this is the main e820 table that is massaged by the
 *   low level x86 platform code, or modified by boot parameters, before
 *   passed on to higher level MM layers.
 *
 * Once the e820 map has been converted to the standard Linux memory layout
 * information its role stops - modifying it has no effect and does not get
 * re-propagated. So itsmain role is a temporary bootstrap storage of firmware
 * specific memory layout data during early bootup.
