[PATCH] fixup bogus e820 entry with mem=

This was reported because someone was getting oopses reading /proc/iomem.
It was tracked down to a zero-sized 'struct resource' entry which was
located right at 4GB.

You need two conditions to hit this bug: a BIOS E820_RAM area starting at
exactly the boundary where you specify mem= (to get a zero-sized entry),
and for the legacy_init_iomem_resources() loop to skip that resource (which
only happens at exactly 4G).

I think the killing zero-sized e820 entry is the easiest way to fix this.
