arch: simplify several early memory allocations

There are several early memory allocations in arch/ code that use
memblock_phys_alloc() to allocate memory, convert the returned physical
address to the virtual address and then set the allocated memory to
zero.

Exactly the same behaviour can be achieved simply by calling
memblock_alloc(): it allocates the memory in the same way as
memblock_phys_alloc(), then it performs the phys_to_virt() conversion
and clears the allocated memory.

Replace the longer sequence with a simpler call to memblock_alloc().
