[Patch v2] mm/memblock: discard .text/.data if CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK not set

When CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK not set, we expect to discard related
code and data. But it doesn't until CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG not set
neither.
This patch puts memblock's .text/.data into its own section, so that it
only depends on CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK to discard related code and
data.
After this, from the log message in mem_init_print_info(), init size
increase from 2420K to 2432K on arch x86.
