memblock: Introduce default allocation limit and use it to replace explicit ones

This introduce memblock.current_limit which is used to limit allocations
from memblock_alloc() or memblock_alloc_base(..., MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE).

The old MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE changes value from 0 to ~(u64)0 and can still
be used with memblock_alloc_base() to allocate really anywhere.

It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears.

Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I
strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit
during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time
results in something that is accessible with a simple __va().

The reason is that a subsequent patch will introduce the ability for
the array to resize itself by reallocating itself. The MEMBLOCK core will
honor the current limit when performing those allocations.
