Bjorn Helgaas a2c606d53a x86: avoid high BIOS area when allocating address space ...

This prevents allocation of the last 2MB before 4GB.

The experiment described here shows Windows 7 ignoring the last 1MB:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23542#c27

This patch ignores the top 2MB instead of just 1MB because H. Peter Anvin
says "There will be ROM at the top of the 32-bit address space; it's a fact
of the architecture, and on at least older systems it was common to have a
shadow 1 MiB below."
