memblock: fix memblock_estimated_nr_free_pages() for soft-reserved memory

Browse source 
The "soft-reserved" memory regions (EFI_MEMORY_SP) are added to the
 memblock.reserved, but not to the memblock.memory. It causes
 memblock_estimated_nr_free_pages() to return a value smaller value than
 expected, or if it underflows, an extremely large value.
 
 Calculate the number of estimated free pages using
 memblock_reserved_kern_size() instead of memblock_reserved_size() to fix
 the issue.
