[RESEND PATCH v2 6/9] x86, acpi: Support allocate memory from bottom upwards in acpi_initrd_override().

From: Tang Chen
Date: Thu Sep 12 2013 - 06:03:45 EST


During early boot, if the bottom up mode is set, just
try allocating bottom up from the end of kernel image,
and if that fails, do normal top down allocation.

So in function acpi_initrd_override(), we add the
above logic.
