powerpc: Only use initrd_end as the limit for alloc_bottom if it's inside the RMO.
As the kernels and initrd's get bigger boot-loaders and possibly
kexec-tools will need to place the initrd outside the RMO. When this
happens we end up with no lowmem and the boot doesn't get very far.
Only use initrd_end as the limit for alloc_bottom if it's inside the
RMO.
