I think it would work on arm64, power and, most propbably on s390
(David?), but not on x86. x86 does not have reserved memory in pgdat,
it's never memblock_add()'ed (see e820__memblock_setup()).

I've suggested to add E820_*_RESERVED to memblock.memory a while ago
[1], but apparently there are systems that cannot tolerate OS mappings
of the BIOS reserved areas.
