Failing to mark Xen as Reserved in the E820 is catastrophic; RAM regions get
handed to the physical memory allocator for general use. Similarly, failure
to mark the boot modules as reserved is not going to result in a working
system.
Mark reserve_e820_ram() as __must_check, and panic() on failure. To avoid
opencoding the range in every caller, print a general failure message in
reserve_e820_ram().

Slightly RFC; only compile tested so far.
There's no obvious fixes tag. This has been many variations of broken since
forever.
