arm64: mark reserved memblock regions explicitly in iomem

Kdump(kexec-tools) parses /proc/iomem to identify all the memory regions
on the system. Since the current kernel names "nomap" regions, like UEFI
runtime services code/data, as "System RAM," kexec-tools sets up elf core
header to include them in a crash dump file (/proc/vmcore).

Then crash dump kernel parses UEFI memory map again, re-marks those regions
as "nomap" and does not create a memory mapping for them unlike the other
areas of System RAM. In this case, copying /proc/vmcore through
copy_oldmem_page() on crash dump kernel will end up with a kernel abort,
as reported in [1].

This patch names all the "nomap" regions explicitly as "reserved" so that
we can exclude them from a crash dump file. acpi_os_ioremap() must also
be modified because those regions have WB attributes [2].

Apart from kdump, this change also matches x86's use of acpi (and
/proc/iomem).
