x86: Handle overlapping mptables

We found a system where the MP table MPC and MPF structures overlap.

That doesn't really matter because the mptable is not used anyways with ACPI,
but it leads to a panic in the early allocator due to the overlapping
reservations in 2.6.33.

Earlier kernels handled this without problems.

Simply change these reservations to reserve_early_overlap_ok to avoid
the panic.
