[RESEND PATCH v2 5/9] x86: Support allocate memory from bottom upwards in relocate_initrd().

[Tang Chen]

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 relocate_initrd(), we add the above logic.
