There are a number of places where early_memremap is called
but the return pointer is not checked for NULL. The call
can result in a NULL being returned so the checks must
be added.

Note that the maintainers for both the Jailhouse and Xen code
approved of using panic() to handle allocation failures.

In addition to checking the return values, a bit of extra
cleanup of pr_* usages was done since the pr_fmt macro was
introduced in the modules touched by this patch.
