x86/boot/e820: Call the PCI gap a 'gap' in the boot log printout
It is a bit weird and inconsistent that the PCI gap is
advertised during bootup as 'mem'ory:
[mem 0xc0000000-0xfed1bfff] available for PCI devices
^^^
It's not really memory, it's a gap that PCI devices can decode
and use and they often do not map it to any memory themselves.
So advertise it for what it is, a gap:
[gap 0xc0000000-0xfed1bfff] available for PCI devices
