[PATCH] ARM: memblock limit must be pmd-aligned

[Doug Berger]

There is a path through the adjust_lowmem_bounds() routine where if all
memory regions start and end on pmd-aligned addresses the memblock_limit
will be set to arm_lowmem_limit.

However, since arm_lowmem_limit can be affected by the vmalloc early
parameter, the value of arm_lowmem_limit may not be pmd-aligned. This
commit corrects this oversight such that memblock_limit is always rounded
down to pmd-alignment.

The pmd containing arm_lowmem_limit is cleared by prepare_page_table()
and without this commit it is possible for early_alloc() to allocate
unmapped memory in that range when mapping the lowmem.
