Yes, that is a bit of an eyesore.  We often approach the problem this
way, which is nicer:

static unsigned long __init free_low_memory_core_early(void)
{
	unsigned long count = 0;
	phys_addr_t start, end;
	u64 i;

	for_each_free_mem_range(i, NUMA_NO_NODE, &start, &end, NULL)
		count += __free_memory_core(start, end);

#ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK
	{
		phys_addr_t size;

		/* Free memblock.reserved array if it was allocated */
		size = get_allocated_memblock_reserved_regions_info(&start);
		if (size)
			count += __free_memory_core(start, start + size);

		/* Free memblock.memory array if it was allocated */
		size = get_allocated_memblock_memory_regions_info(&start);
		if (size)
			count += __free_memory_core(start, start + size);
	}
#endif

	return count;
}
