43 * This function initializes the Physical Memory Manager in a given cluster.
44 * It allocates physical memory to store the physical page descriptors
45 * array (ppm_tbl), and initializes it using the <pages_nr> field in boot_info.
46 * As the physical memory allocator is not available yet, this physical memory is
47 * allocated on top of the kernel code, using the <pages_offset> field in boot_info.
48 * The pages containing the kernel code, and the pages marked as <reserved> by the
49 * boot-loader in the boot_info structure are removed from the free-lists.
