Subject[PATCH 4/5] printk: use alloc_bootmem() instead of memblock_alloc().
Date
The code in setup_log_buf() had two memory allocation branches, depending
on the value of 'early'. If early==1, it would use memblock_alloc(); if
early==0, it would use alloc_bootmem_nopanic().

bootmem should already configured by the time setup_log_buf(early=1) is
called, so there's no reason to have the separation. Furthermore, on
arches with nobootmem, memblock_alloc is essentially the same as
alloc_bootmem anyway. x86 is one such arch, and also the only one
that uses early=1.
