+Subject: [PATCH 2/8] x86/setup: Consolidate early memory reservations
+
+The early reservations of memory areas used by the firmware, bootloader,
+kernel text and data are spread over setup_arch(). Moreover, some of them
+happen *after* memblock allocations, e.g trim_platform_memory_ranges() and
+trim_low_memory_range() are called after reserve_real_mode() that allocates
+memory.
+
+There was no corruption of these memory regions because memblock always
+allocates memory either from the end of memory (in top-down mode) or above
+the kernel image (in bottom-up mode). However, the bottom up mode is going
+to be updated to span the entire memory [1] to avoid limitations caused by
+KASLR.
+
+Consolidate early memory reservations in a dedicated function to improve
+robustness against future changes. Having the early reservations in one
+place also makes it clearer what memory must be reserved before memblock
+allocations are allowed.
