Btw, you can get rid of that one too:

/*
* Here we put platform-specific memory range workarounds, i.e.
* memory known to be corrupt or otherwise in need to be reserved on
* specific platforms.
*
* If this gets used more widely it could use a real dispatch mechanism.
*/
static void __init trim_platform_memory_ranges(void)
{
trim_snb_memory();
}

yeah, yeah, we can do a real dispatch mechanism but we didn't need one
since 2012 so I guess we can get rid of trim_platform_memory_ranges()
and call trim_snb_memory() directly and simplify it even more.

Thx.
