    Revert "x86: cap iomem_resource to addressable physical memory"

    This reverts commit 95ee14e4379c5e19c0897c872350570402014742.
    Mikael Petterson <mikpe@it.uu.se> reported that at least one of his
    systems will not boot as a result. We have ruled out the detection
    algorithm malfunctioning, so it is not a matter of producing the
    incorrect bitmasks; rather, something in the application of them
    fails.

    Revert the commit until we can root cause and correct this problem.

    -stable team: this means the underlying commit should be rejected.
