    x86/mm, hibernate: Do not assume the first e820 area to be RAM · 84779575

    In arch/x86/kernel/setup.c::trim_bios_range(), the codes
    introduced by 1b5576e6 (base on d8a9e6a5), it updates the first
    4Kb of memory to be E820_RESERVED region. That's because it's a
    BIOS owned area but generally not listed in the E820 table:
    
      e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
      BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000096fff] usable
      BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000097000-0x0000000000097fff] reserved
      ...
      e820: update [mem 0x00000000-0x00000fff] usable ==> reserved
      e820: remove [mem 0x000a0000-0x000fffff] usable
    
    But the region of first 4Kb didn't register to nosave memory:
    
      PM: Registered nosave memory: [mem 0x00097000-0x00097fff]
      PM: Registered nosave memory: [mem 0x000a0000-0x000fffff]
    
    The code in e820_mark_nosave_regions() assumes the first e820
    area to be RAM, so it causes the first 4Kb E820_RESERVED region
    ignored when register to nosave. This patch removed assumption
    of the first e820 area.
