Remap alloc init is done in the following stages.

1. init_alloc_remap() calculates how much memory is necessary for each
   node and reserves node local memory.

2. initmem_init() collects how much each node needs and reserves a
   single contiguous lowmem area which can contain all.

3. init_remap_allocator() initializes allocator parameters from the
   determined lowmem address and per-node offsets.

4. Actual remap happens.

There is no reason for the lowmem remap area to be reserved as a
single contiguous area at one go.  They don't interact with each other
and the memblock allocator will put them side-by-side anyway.

This patch breaks up the single lowmem address reservation and put
per-node lowmem address reservation into init_alloc_remap() and
initializes allocator parameters directly in the function as all the
addresses are determined there.  This merges steps 2 and 3 into 1.

While at it, remove now largely irrelevant comments in
init_alloc_remap().

This change causes the following behavior changes.

* Remap lowmem areas are allocated in smaller per-node chunks.

* Remap lowmem area reservation failure fail future remap allocations
  instead of panicking.

* Remap allocator initialization is less verbose.
