x86/boot/KASLR: Limit KASLR to extract the kernel in immovable memory only



KASLR may randomly choose a range which is located in movable memory
regions. As a result, this will break memory hotplug and make the
movable memory chosen by KASLR immovable.

Therefore, limit KASLR to choose memory regions in the immovable range
after consulting the SRAT table.
