Commit Message

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <[e-mail]>

Add reserve_mem_release_by_name() to release a reserved memory region
with a given name. This allows us to release reserved memory which is
defined by kernel cmdline, after boot.

 Changes in v4:
  - Use free_reserved_area() according to Mike's comment.
 Changes in v2:
  - Rename reserved_mem_* to reserve_mem_*.
