s390/boot: avoid mapping standby memory



Commit bb1520d5 ("s390/mm: start kernel with DAT enabled")
doesn't consider online memory holes due to potential memory offlining
and erroneously creates pgtables for stand-by memory, which bear RW+X
attribute and trigger a warning:

RANGE                                 SIZE   STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK
0x0000000000000000-0x0000000c3fffffff  49G  online       yes  0-48
0x0000000c40000000-0x0000000c7fffffff   1G offline              49
0x0000000c80000000-0x0000000fffffffff  14G  online       yes 50-63
0x0000001000000000-0x00000013ffffffff  16G offline           64-79

    s390/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address 0xc40000000
    WARNING: CPU: 14 PID: 1 at arch/s390/mm/dump_pagetables.c:142 note_page+0x2cc/0x2d8

Map only online memory ranges which fit within identity mapping limit.
