Early_pgtable_alloc: allocate a page size of physical storage into pgdmap_kernel (pgd): map each segment of the kernel (.text .init .data .bss)

Map_mem (pgd): maps physical memory added by the memblock subsystem (maps physical addresses to linear areas)

The main task is to complete the physical memory mapping added to the system through memblock_add, and note that if memblock has the MEMBLOCK_NOMAP flag set, its address is not mapped.
