When multiple GICs exist on a platform (RealView PB1176/11MP),

The fix is to only register the notifier when initializing

This is caused by the compiler underestimating the size of the inline

that some fixed locations in the vmalloc area be reserved also very early.
The name "vm_area_register_early" would have been a good name for the
reservation part without the allocation. Since it is already in use with
different semantics, let's create vm_area_add_early() instead.
Both vm_area_register_early() and vm_area_add_early() can be used together
meaning that the former is now implemented using the later where it is
ensured that no conflicting areas are added, but no attempt is made to
make the allocation scheme in vm_area_register_early() more sophisticated.
After all, you must know what you're doing when using those functions.

ARM: move initialization of the high_memory variable earlier
Some upcoming changes must know the VMALLOC_START value, which is based
on high_memory, before bootmem_init() is called.
The best location to set it is in sanity_check_meminfo() where the needed
computation is already done, and in the non MMU case it is trivial to do
now that the meminfo array is already sorted at that point.

ARM: sort the meminfo array earlier
The meminfo array has to be sorted before sanity_check_meminfo() in
arch/arm/mm/mmu.c is called for it to work properly. This also allows
for a simpler find_limits() in arch/arm/mm/init.c.
The sort is moved to arch/arm/kernel/setup.c because that's where the
meminfo array is populated. Eventually this should be improved upon
to make the memory bank parser a bit more robust against problems
such as overlapping memory ranges.
