In a system(Huawei Ascend ARM64 SoC) using HBM, a multi-bit ECC error
occurs, and the BIOS will mark the corresponding area (for example, 2 MB)
as unusable. When the system restarts next time, these areas are not
reported or reported as EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY. Both cases lead to an
increase in the number of memblocks, whereas EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY
leads to a larger number of memblocks.

For example, if the EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY type is reported:

The EFI memory map is parsed to construct the memblock arrays before
the memblock arrays can be resized. As the result, memory regions
beyond INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS are lost.

Add a new macro INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGTIONS to replace
INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGTIONS to define the size of the static memblock.memory
array.

Allow overriding memblock.memory array size with architecture defined
INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS and make arm64 to set
INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS to 1024 when CONFIG_EFI is enabled.
