ARM: mm: Don't allow resizing of memblock data until "low" memory is not mapped
If allowed by call to memblock_allow_resize() - The Memblock core will try to allocate additional memory and rearrange its internal data in case, if there are more then INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS(128) memory regions of any type have been allocated. If this happens before Low memory is mapped (which is done now by map_lowmem()) the system will hang, because the Memblock core will try to operate with virtual addresses which aren't mapped yet. In ARM code, the memblock resizing is allowed (memblock_allow_resize()) from arm_memblock_init() which is called before map_lowmem(), so this may lead to an error as described above. Hence, allow Memblock resizing later during init, from bootmem_init() when all appropriate mappings are ready.
