On large systems with a lot of memory, walking all RAM to determine page
types may take a half second or even more.
In non-blockable contexts, the page allocator will emit a page allocation
failure warning unless __GFP_NOWARN is specified. In such contexts, irqs
are typically disabled and such a lengthy delay may even result in NMI
watchdog timeouts.
To fix this, suppress the page walk in such contexts when printing the
page allocation failure warning.

Allow arm_memblock_steal() to remove memory from any RAM region,
including highmem areas. This allows memory to be stolen from the
very top of declared memory, including highmem areas, rather than
our precious lowmem.

arm_dma_limit stores physical address of maximal address accessible by DMA,
so the phys_addr_t type makes much more sense for it instead of u32. This

This patch adds support for CMA to dma-mapping subsystem for ARM
architecture. By default a global CMA area is used, but specific devices
are allowed to have their private memory areas if required (they can be
created with dma_declare_contiguous() function during board
initialisation).
Contiguous memory areas reserved for DMA are remapped with 2-level page
tables on boot. Once a buffer is requested, a low memory kernel mapping
is updated to to match requested memory access type.
GFP_ATOMIC allocations are performed from special pool which is created
early during boot. This way remapping page attributes is not needed on
allocation time.
CMA has been enabled unconditionally for ARMv6+ systems.

Commit 716a3dc2008 (ARM: Add arm_memblock_steal() to allocate memory
away from the kernel) added a function which calls memblock_alloc().

Several platforms are now using the memblock_alloc+memblock_free+
memblock_remove trick to obtain memory which won't be mapped in the
kernel's page tables. Most platforms do this (correctly) in the
->reserve callback. However, OMAP has started to call these functions
outside of this callback, and this is extremely unsafe - memory will
not be unmapped, and could well be given out after memblock is no
longer responsible for its management.
So, provide arm_memblock_steal() to perform this function, and ensure
that it panic()s if it is used inappropriately. Convert everyone
over, including OMAP.
As a result, OMAP with OMAP4_ERRATA_I688 enabled will panic on boot
with this change. Mark this option as BROKEN and make it depend on
BROKEN. OMAP needs to be fixed, or 137d105d50 (ARM: OMAP4: Fix
errata i688 with MPU interconnect barriers.) reverted until such
time it can be fixed correctly.

memblock_init() initializes arrays for regions and memblock itself;
however, all these can be done with struct initializers and
memblock_init() can be removed. This patch kills memblock_init() and
initializes memblock with struct initializer.
The only difference is that the first dummy entries don't have .nid
set to MAX_NUMNODES initially. This doesn't cause any behavior
difference.

24aa07882b (memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range()
with generic ones) removed arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and dropped
its inclusion from include/linux/memblock.h which breaks other
architectures which depended on the generic memblock.h pulling in the
arch specific one.
However, the proper fix isn't adding back the asm inclusion. memblock
doesn't have any arch dependent part and doesn't need arch specific
header file and asm/memblock.h files are either practically empty or
contain mostly unrelated arch specific stuff.
* In microblaze, sh, powerpc, sparc and openrisc, asm/memblock.h is
either empty or just contains unused MEMBLOCK_DBG() macro. Remove
them.
* In arm and unicore32, asm/memblock.h contains arch specific stuff.
Include it directly from its users. It might be a good idea to
rename the header file to avoid confusion.

Some upcoming changes must know the VMALLOC_START value, which is based
on high_memory, before bootmem_init() is called.
The best location to set it is in sanity_check_meminfo() where the needed
computation is already done, and in the non MMU case it is trivial to do
now that the meminfo array is already sorted at that point.

The meminfo array has to be sorted before sanity_check_meminfo() in
arch/arm/mm/mmu.c is called for it to work properly. This also allows
for a simpler find_limits() in arch/arm/mm/init.c.
The sort is moved to arch/arm/kernel/setup.c because that's where the
meminfo array is populated. Eventually this should be improved upon
to make the memory bank parser a bit more robust against problems
such as overlapping memory ranges.

When ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL is selected, pfn_valid calls
memblock_is_memory to test validity of a pfn:
> memblock_is_memory(pfn << PAGE_SHIFT);
On LPAE systems this cuts off the top bits, as the shift occurs before
the value is promoted to a phys_addr_t.
This patch replaces the shift with a call to __pfn_to_phys (which casts
pfn to phys_addr_t before shifting), preventing the loss of significant
bits.

In commit eb33575c ("[ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a
memmap has unexpected holes V2"), a new function, memmap_valid_within,
was introduced to mmzone.h so that holes in the memmap which pass
pfn_valid in SPARSEMEM configurations can be detected and avoided.
The fix to this problem checks that the pfn <-> page linkages are
correct by calculating the page for the pfn and then checking that
page_to_pfn on that page returns the original pfn. Unfortunately, in
SPARSEMEM configurations, this results in reading from the page flags to
determine the correct section. Since the memmap here has been freed,
junk is read from memory and the check is no longer robust.
In the best case, reading from /proc/pagetypeinfo will give you the
wrong answer. In the worst case, you get SEGVs, Kernel OOPses and hung
CPUs. Furthermore, ioremap implementations that use pfn_valid to
disallow the remapping of normal memory will break.
This patch allows architectures to provide their own pfn_valid function
instead of using the default implementation used by sparsemem. The
architecture-specific version is aware of the memmap state and will
return false when passed a pfn for a freed page within a valid section.

Architectures that implement their own show_mem() function did not pass
the filter argument to show_free_areas() to appropriately avoid emitting
the state of nodes that are disallowed in the current context. This patch
now passes the filter argument to show_free_areas() so those nodes are now
avoided.
This patch also removes the show_free_areas() wrapper around
__show_free_areas() and converts existing callers to pass an empty filter.
ia64 emits additional information for each node, so skip_free_areas_zone()
must be made global to filter disallowed nodes and it is converted to use
a nid argument rather than a zone for this use case.

If a dtb is passed to the kernel then the kernel needs to iterate
through compiled-in mdescs looking for one that matches and move the
dtb data to a safe location before it gets accidentally overwritten by
the kernel.
This patch creates a new function, setup_machine_fdt() which is
analogous to the setup_machine_atags() created in the previous patch.
It does all the early setup needed to use a device tree machine
description.
v5: - Print warning with neither dtb nor atags are passed to the kernel
- Fix bug in setting of __machine_arch_type to the selected machine,
not just the last machine in the list.
Reported-by: Tixy <tixy@yxit.co.uk>
- Copy command line directly into boot_command_line instead of cmd_line
v4: - Dump some output when a matching machine_desc cannot be found
v3: - Added processing of reserved list.
- Backed out the v2 change that copied instead of reserved the
dtb. dtb is reserved again and the real problem was fixed by
using alloc_bootmem_align() for early allocation of RAM for
unflattening the tree.
- Moved cmd_line and initrd changes to earlier patch to make series
bisectable.
v2: Changed to save the dtb by copying into an allocated buffer.
- Since the dtb will very likely be passed in the first 16k of ram
where the interrupt vectors live, memblock_reserve() is
insufficient to protect the dtb data.

The SPARSEMEM code allocates memmap entries only for sections which are
present (i.e. those which contain some valid memory). The membank checks
in free_unused_memmap do not take this into account and can incorrectly
attempt to free memory which is not allocated, resulting in a BUG() in
the bootmem code.
However, if memory is configured as follows:
|<----section---->|<----hole---->|<----section---->|
+--------+--------+--------------+--------+--------+
| bank 0 | unused | | bank 1 | unused |
+--------+--------+--------------+--------+--------+
where a bank only occupies part of a section, the memmap allocated for
the remainder of the section *can* be freed.
This patch modifies the checks in free_unused_memmap so that only valid
memmap entries are considered for removal.

Rather than each platform providing its own function to adjust the
zone sizes, use the new ARM_DMA_ZONE_SIZE definition to perform this
adjustment. This ensures that the actual DMA zone size and the
ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD/MAX_DMA_ADDRESS definitions are consistent with
each other, and moves this complexity out of the platform code.

Add some basic empty infrastructure for DT support on ARM.
v5: - Fix off-by-one error in size calculation of initrd
- Stop mucking with cmd_line, and load command line from dt into
boot_command_line instead which matches the behaviour of ATAGS booting
v3: - moved cmd_line export and initrd setup to this patch to make the
series bisectable.
- switched to alloc_bootmem_align() for allocation when
unflattening the device tree. memblock_alloc() was not the
right interface.

Commit ddd588b5dd55 ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():
lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here
The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.
Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.

The unsigned long datatype is not sufficient for mapping physical addresses
>= 4GB.
This patch ensures that the phys_addr_t datatype is used to represent physical
addresses when converting from a PFN.

Disable the initrd if the passed address already overlaps the reserved
region. This avoids oopses on Netwinders when NeTTrom tells the kernel
that an initrd is located at mem+4MB, but this overlaps the BSS,
resulting in the kernels in-use BSS being freed.
This should be applied to v2.6.37-stable.

bootmem_init() no longer makes several uses of the membank
information, so move this into the one remaining called function
which does use it.
