FMEM: allocate non-fixed FMEM from memory pool
On platforms whose FMEM is not at a fixed place
and which don't have DMM (such as 7x27a), FMEM
and the EBI memory pool would incorrectly overlap,
and the same memory would be used both as FMEM
and as memory allocated by allocate_contiguous_memory()
at the same time leading to crashes and strange behavior.
There are some unsolved problems related to
allocating FMEM from unstable memory, so we have
decided not to do this any longer. This decision allows
us to simply allocate non-fixed FMEM from the
EBI memory pool (this will prevent FMEM's memory
from being used by another allocator at the same time).
In this case FMEM will appear to "overlap" with
the memory pool, but this now OK as FMEM is allocated
from it.
This also re-enables FMEM on 7x27a and 8625, which
had been disabled due to the above-mentioned bug.
