x86: use FIRMWARE_MEMMAP on x86/E820

This patch uses the /sys/firmware/memmap interface provided in the last patch
on the x86 architecture when E820 is used. The patch copies the E820
memory map very early, and registers the E820 map afterwards via
firmware_map_add_early().

+ *
+ * The e820_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.
+ *
+ * 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.
