From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman•id.au>

commit abf110f3e1cea40f5ea15e85f5d67c39c14568a7 upstream.

For PowerVM migration we want to be able to call setup_rfi_flush()
again after we've migrated the partition.

To support that we need to check that we're not trying to allocate the
fallback flush area after memblock has gone away (i.e., boot-time only).
