[RFC v2 3/4] fadump: Reserve page-aligned boot_memory_size during fadump_reserve_mem

This patch refactors all CMA related initialization and alignment code
to within fadump_cma_init() which gets called in the end. This also means
that we keep [reserve_dump_area_start, boot_memory_size] page aligned
during fadump_reserve_mem(). Then later in fadump_cma_init() we extract the
aligned chunk and provide it to CMA. This inherently also fixes an issue in
the current code where the reserve_dump_area_start is not aligned
when the physical memory can have holes and the suitable chunk starts at
an unaligned boundary.

After this we should be able to call fadump_cma_init() independently
later in setup_arch() where pageblock_order is non-zero.
