memblock: don't touch memblock arrays when memblock_free() is called late
When memblock_free() is called after memblock_discard() on architectures
that don't select ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK, it tries to update memblock.reserved
that was already discarded and it causes use-after-free, for example

Make sure memblock_free() updates memblock.reserved only when called early
enough or when ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK is enabled.
