A given page of memory can only be accepted once.  The kernel has a need
to accept memory both in the early decompression stage and during normal
runtime.

A bitmap used to communicate the acceptance state of each page between the
decompression stage and normal runtime.  This eliminates the possibility of
attempting to double-accept a page.

The bitmap is allocated in EFI stub, decompression stage updates the state
of pages used for the kernel and initrd and hands the bitmap over to the
main kernel image via boot_params.

In the runtime kernel, reserve the bitmap's memory to ensure nothing
overwrites it.
