x86/setup: simplify initrd relocation and reservation

Currently, initrd image is reserved very early during setup and then it
might be relocated and re-reserved after the initial physical memory
mapping is created.  The "late" reservation of memblock verifies that
mapped memory size exceeds the size of initrd, then checks whether the
relocation required and, if yes, relocates inirtd to a new memory
allocated from memblock and frees the old location.

The check for memory size is excessive as memblock allocation will anyway
fail if there is not enough memory.  Besides, there is no point to
allocate memory from memblock using memblock_find_in_range() +
memblock_reserve() when there exists memblock_phys_alloc_range() with
required functionality.

Remove the redundant check and simplify memblock allocation.
