x86/setup: Move trim_snb_memory() later in setup_arch() to fix boot hangs
Commit a799c2bd ("x86/setup: Consolidate early memory reservations") moved reservation of the memory inaccessible by Sandy Bride integrated graphics very early, and, as a result, on systems with such devices the first 1M was reserved by trim_snb_memory() which prevented the allocation of the real mode trampoline and made the boot hang very early. Since the purpose of trim_snb_memory() is to prevent problematic pages ever reaching the graphics device, it is safe to reserve these pages after memblock allocations are possible. Move trim_snb_memory() later in boot so that it will be called after reserve_real_mode() and make comments describing trim_snb_memory() operation more elaborate.
