When only the -kernel parameter is used to load the elf kernel,
the initrd is loaded in the ram. If the initrd size is too large,
the loading fails, resulting in a VM startup failure.
This patch first loads initrd near the kernel.
When the nearby memory space of the kernel is insufficient,
it tries to load it to the starting position of high memory.
If there is still not enough, qemu will report an error
and ask the user to increase the memory space for the
virtual machine to boot.

ChangeLog:
V1->V2:
If the low memory is insufficient, the initrd is directly loaded
from the start address of the high memory, and the node0 memory space is not counted.
