x86/mm: Declare 'start' variable where it is used

Browse source

It is not required to initialize the local variable start in
memory_map_top_down(), as the variable will be initialized in any path
before it is used.

make clang-analyzer on x86_64 tinyconfig reports:

  arch/x86/mm/init.c:612:15: warning: Although the value stored to 'start' \
  is used in the enclosing expression, the value is never actually read \
  from 'start' [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores]

Move the variable declaration into the loop, where it is used.

No code changed:

  # arch/x86/mm/init.o:
