mm/page_alloc.c: introduce kernelcore=mirror option

Browse Source 
This patch extends existing "kernelcore" option and introduces
kernelcore=mirror option.  By specifying "mirror" instead of specifying
the amount of memory, non-mirrored (non-reliable) region will be
arranged into ZONE_MOVABLE.

Instead of specifying the amount of memory (nn[KMGTPE]),
you can specify "mirror" option. In case "mirror"
option is specified, mirrored (reliable) memory is used
for non-movable allocations and remaining memory is used
for Movable pages. nn[KMGTPE] and "mirror" are exclusive,
so you can NOT specify nn[KMGTPE] and "mirror" at the same
time.
