x86: avoid low BIOS area when allocating address space This implements arch_remove_reservations() so allocate_resource() can avoid any arch-specific reserved areas. This currently just avoids the BIOS area (the first 1MB), but could be used for E820 reserved areas if that turns out to be necessary. We previously avoided this area in pcibios_align_resource(). This patch moves the test from that PCI-specific path to a generic path, so all resource allocations will avoid this area. Acked-by: H.
