Subject: arm64: memory: give hotplug memory a different resource name

If kexec chooses to place the kernel in a memory region that was added
after boot, we fail to boot as the kernel is running from a location that
is not described as memory by the UEFI memory map or the original DT.

To prevent unaware user-space kexec from doing this accidentally, give
these regions a different name.
