commit fbe6183998546f8896ee0b620ece86deff5a2fd1 upstream. This reverts commit 8d48bf8206f77aa8687f0e241e901e5197e52423. It turned out to be a bad idea as it broke supplying mem= cmdline parameters due to parse_memopt() requiring preparatory work like setting up the e820 table in e820__memory_setup() in order to be able to exclude the range specified by mem=. Pulling that up would've broken Xen PV again, see threads at https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210920120421.29276-1-jgross@suse.com due to xen_memory_setup() needing the first reservations in early_reserve_memory() - kernel and initrd - to have happened already. This could be fixed again by having Xen do those reservations itself... Long story short, revert this and do a simpler fix in a later patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
