Yah, I see it too: early_reserve_memory |-> efi_memblock_x86_reserve_range |-> efi_fake_memmap_early which does if (!efi_soft_reserve_enabled()) return; and that would have set EFI_MEM_NO_SOFT_RESERVE after having parsed "nosoftreserve". And parse_early_param() happens later. Uuuf, that early memory reservation dance is not going to be over, ever... Well, I guess we can do something like this below. The intent being to carve out the command line preparation into a separate function which does the early param parsing too. So that it all goes together. And then call that function before early_reserve_memory() so that the params have been parsed by then. Looking at the changed flow, I think we should be ok but I've said that a bunch of times already regarding this memory reservation early and something in our house of cards called early boot order always broke.
