There currently are multiple allocation API's in the LMB module. There
are a couple of API's for allocating memory(lmb_alloc() and
lmb_alloc_base()), and then there are two for requesting a reservation
for a particular memory region (lmb_reserve() and
lmb_alloc_addr()). Introduce a single API lmb_alloc_mem() which will
cater to all types of allocation requests and replace lmb_reserve()
and lmb_alloc_addr() with the new API.
Moreover, the lmb_reserve() API is pretty similar to the
lmb_alloc_addr() API, with the one difference being that the
lmb_reserve() API allows for reserving any address passed to it --
the address need not be part of the LMB memory map. The
lmb_alloc_addr() does check that the address being requested is
actually part of the LMB memory map.
There is no need to support reserving memory regions which are outside
the LMB memory map. Remove the lmb_reserve() API functionality and use
the functionality provided by lmb_alloc_addr() instead. The
lmb_alloc_addr() will check if the requested address is part of the
LMB memory map and return an error if not.

lmb_reserve() is just calling lmb_reserve_flags() with LMB_NONE.
There's not much we gain from this abstraction.
So let's remove the latter, add the flags argument to lmb_reserve()
and make the code a bit easier to follow.

All the current function definitions of arch_lmb_reserve() are doing
the same thing -- reserve the U-Boot memory region. The powerpc(ppc)
architecture, in addition, is making some LMB reservations for the
bootm related image loading. Move these ppc specific reservations to
the arch_misc_init() function. This allows to move the U-Boot memory
region reservation to a different function, and remove
arch_lmb_reserve() in a subsequent commit.
