mm,memblock: reset memblock.reserved to system init state to prevent UAF

The memblock_discard function frees the memblock.reserved.regions
array, which is good.

However, if a subsequent memblock_free (or memblock_phys_free) comes
in later, from for example ima_free_kexec_buffer, that will result in
a use after free bug in memblock_isolate_range.

When running a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN enabled, this will cause a
kernel panic very early in boot. Without CONFIG_KASAN, there is
a chance that memblock_isolate_range might scribble on memory
that is now in use by somebody else.

Avoid those issues by making sure that memblock_discard points
memblock.reserved.regions back at the static buffer.

If memblock_free is called after memblock memory is discarded, that will
print a warning in memblock_remove_region.
