[AVR32] Reserve framebuffer memory in early_parse_fbmem()

Browse source

With the current strategy of using the bootmem allocator to allocate
or reserve framebuffer memory, there's a slight chance that the
requested area has been taken by the boot allocator bitmap before we
get around to reserving it.

By inserting the framebuffer region as a reserved region as early as
possible, we improve our chances for success and we make the region
visible as a reserved region in dmesg and /proc/iomem without any
extra work.
