Allocating the zero pages from memblock is simpler because the memory is
already reserved.

This will also help with pulling out memblock_free_all() to the generic
code and reducing code duplication in arch::mem_init().

This could have been converted to memblock_alloc_or_panic(), but I
guess this can also be done at a later point in time.
Duh, I should have remembered about memblock_alloc_or_panic() :)

@Andrew, can you please pick this as a fixup?
