x86/mm: Check return value from memblock_phys_alloc_range()

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 631ca8909fd5c62b9fda9edda93924311a78a9c4 ]

At least with CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000, if there is < 4 MiB of
contiguous free memory available at this point, the kernel will crash
and burn because memblock_phys_alloc_range() returns 0 on failure,
which leads memblock_phys_free() to throw the first 4 MiB of physical
memory to the wolves.

At a minimum it should fail gracefully with a meaningful diagnostic,
but in fact everything seems to work fine without the weird reserve
allocation.
