[PATCHv3 0/2] Memblock cleanup plus memory removal fix

[Laura Abbott]

Hi,

This is v3 of the series ot make sanity_check_meminfo (renamed in this series)
more readable and less error prone and fix an existing bug. This is just typo
and style fixes from v2.

Russell, if I don't hear any objections in a few days I am going to put this in
the patch tracker.

As a reminder, of the motivation fot this series, during the course of
https://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=148145259511248, Grygorii Strashko
reminded me of another issue where I proposed a patch but never followed up on
it. The patch in
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-October/296978.html
did some cleanup and renaming of sanity_check_meminfo. I think this makes the
code more readable so I'd like to resurect it and rebase my fix
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2016-December/474060.html
on top of it.

[PATCHv3 1/2] arm: Cleanup sanity_check_meminfo

[Laura Abbott]

The logic for sanity_check_meminfo has become difficult to
follow. Clean up the code so it's more obvious what the code
is actually trying to do. Additionally, meminfo is now removed
so rename the function to better describe its purpose.

[PATCHv3 2/2] arm: Adjust memory boundaries after reservations

[Laura Abbott]

adjust_lowmem_bounds is responsible for setting up the boundary for
lowmem/highmem. This needs to be setup before memblock reservations can
occur. At the time memblock reservations can occur, memory can also be
removed from the system. The lowmem/highmem boundary and end of memory
may be affected by this but it is currently not recalculated. On some
systems this may be harmless, on others this may result in incorrect
ranges being passed to the main memory allocator. Correct this by
recalculating the lowmem/highmem boundary after all reservations have
been made.
