Paul Mackerras 300613e523 [LMB] Fix some whitespace and other formatting issues, use pr_debug
This makes no semantic changes.  It fixes the whitespace and formatting
a bit, gets rid of a local DBG macro and uses the equivalent pr_debug
instead, and restructures one while loop that had a function call and
assignment in the condition to be a bit more readable.  Some comments
about functions being called with relocation disabled were also removed
as they would just be confusing to most readers now that the code is
in lib/.

David S. Miller c50f68c8ae [LMB] Add lmb_alloc_nid()
A variant of lmb_alloc() that tries to allocate memory on a specified
NUMA node 'nid' but falls back to normal lmb_alloc() if that fails.

The caller provides a 'nid_range' function pointer which assists the
allocator.  It is given args 'start', 'end', and pointer to integer
'this_nid'.

It places at 'this_nid' the NUMA node id that corresponds to 'start',
and returns the end address within 'start' to 'end' at which memory
assosciated with 'nid' ends.

This callback allows a platform to use lmb_alloc_nid() in just
about any context, even ones in which early_pfn_to_nid() might
not be working yet.

This function will be used by the NUMA setup code on sparc64, and also
it can be used by powerpc, replacing it's hand crafted
"careful_allocation()" function in arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c

If x86 ever converts it's NUMA support over to using the LMB helpers,
it can use this too as it has something entirely similar.

Kumar Gala 74b20dad1c [LMB]: Fix lmb_add_region if region should be added at the head
We introduced a bug in fixing lmb_add_region to handle an initial
region being non-zero.  Before that fix it was impossible to insert a
region at the head of the list since the first region always started
at zero.

Now that its possible for the first region to be non-zero we need to
check to see if the new region should be added at the head and if so
actually add it.

Becky Bruce e5f2709543 [LMB]: Make lmb support large physical addressing
Convert the lmb code to use u64 instead of unsigned long for physical
addresses and sizes.  This is needed to support large amounts of RAM
on 32-bit systems that support 36-bit physical addressing.

Kumar Gala 27e6672bb9 [LMB]: Fix initial lmb add region with a non-zero base
If we add to an empty lmb region with a non-zero base we will not
coalesce the number of regions down to one.  This causes problems on
ppc32 for the memory region as its assumed to only have one region.

We can fix this be easily specially casing the initial add to just
replace the dummy region.

David S. Miller eea89e13a9 [LMB]: Fix bug in __lmb_alloc_base().
We need to check lmb_add_region() for errors, it can run out
of regions etc.

Also, the size needs to be padded to the given alignment
or else the lmb.reserved regions don't get expanded and
instead we get tons of holes and eventually run out of
regions prematurely.
