x86: Fix system crash when loading with "reservetop" parameter
The system will die if the kernel is booted with "reservetop"
parameter, in present code, parse "reservetop" parameter after
early_ioremap_init(), and some function still use
early_ioremap() after it.
The problem is, "reservetop" parameter can modify
'FIXADDR_TOP', then the virtual address got by early_ioremap()
is base on old 'FIXADDR_TOP', but the page mapping is base on
new 'FIXADDR_TOP', it will occur page fault, and the IDT is not
prepare yet, so, the system is dead.
So, put parse_early_param() in the front of
early_ioremap_init() in this patch.
