Consolidation and cleanup of the early memory reservations, along with a
couple of gcc11 warning fixes.
x86/setup: Move trim_snb_memory() later in setup_arch() to fix boot hangs
Commit
a799c2bd29d1 ("x86/setup: Consolidate early memory reservations")
moved reservation of the memory inaccessible by Sandy Bride integrated
graphics very early, and, as a result, on systems with such devices
the first 1M was reserved by trim_snb_memory() which prevented the
allocation of the real mode trampoline and made the boot hang very
early.
Since the purpose of trim_snb_memory() is to prevent problematic pages
ever reaching the graphics device, it is safe to reserve these pages
after memblock allocations are possible.
Move trim_snb_memory() later in boot so that it will be called after
reserve_real_mode() and make comments describing trim_snb_memory()
operation more elaborate.
