Now that all users of device_node.type pointer have been removed in
favor of accessor functions, we can remove it.

On architectures that only get their bootargs through devicetree's
chosen node (such as RISC-V), that node is mandatory. After a
discussion with Rob [1] I'm adding a warning in case chosen node
is not present, to let users know about it.

<title>of/fdt: Remove custom __early_init_dt_declare_initrd() implementation</title>

<content type='text'>
Now that ARM64 uses phys_initrd_start/phys_initrd_size, we can get rid
of its custom __early_init_dt_declare_initrd() which causes a fair
amount of objects rebuild when changing CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD. In order
to make sure ARM64 does not produce a BUG() when VM debugging is turned
on though, we must avoid early calls to __va() which is what
__early_init_dt_declare_initrd() does and wrap this around to avoid
running that code on ARM64.

<content type='text'>
Now that we have central and global variables holding the physical
address and size of the initrd, we can have
early_init_dt_check_for_initrd() populate
phys_initrd_start/phys_initrd_size for us.

This allows us to remove a chunk of code from arch/arm/mm/init.c
introduced with commit 65939301acdb ("arm: set initrd_start/initrd_end
for fdt scan").

All architecures use memblock for early memory management. There is no need
for the CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK configuration option.

All architecures use memblock for early memory management. There is no need
for the CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK configuration option.

Memory region size is rounded down to page boundary and with sub-page
region it becomes 0 and there is no point to add an empty region.
Moreover, when the base is less than PAGE_SIZE we get a bogus size as
(base + size - 1) evaluates to -1.

8cccffc52694 ("of: check for size &lt; 0 after rounding in
early_init_dt_add_memory_arch") introduced a test for wrap around for the
case when base is not page aligned, the same test can be used to ignore
sub-page region sizes.

<title>of/fdt: Remove PPC32 longtrail hack in memory scan</title>

<content type='text'>
When the OF code was originally made common by Grant in commit
51975db0b733 ("of/flattree: merge early_init_dt_scan_memory() common
code") (Feb 2010), the common code inherited a hack to handle
PPC "longtrail" machines, which had a "memory@0" node with no
device_type.

That check was then made to only apply to PPC32 in b44aa25d20e2 ("of:
Handle memory@0 node on PPC32 only") (May 2014).

But according to Paul Mackerras the "longtrail" machines are long
dead, if they were ever seen in the wild at all. If someone does still
have one, we can handle this firmware wart in powerpc platform code.

So remove the hack once and for all.

<title>earlycon: Use a pointer table to fix __earlycon_table stride</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 99492c39f39f ("earlycon: Fix __earlycon_table stride") tried to fix
__earlycon_table stride by forcing the earlycon_id struct alignment to 32
and asking the linker to 32-byte align the __earlycon_table symbol.  This
fix was based on commit 07fca0e57fca92 ("tracing: Properly align linker
defined symbols") which tried a similar fix for the tracing subsystem.

However, this fix doesn't quite work because there is no guarantee that
gcc will place structures packed into an array format.  In fact, gcc 4.9
chooses to 64-byte align these structs by inserting additional padding
between the entries because it has no clue that they are supposed to be in
an array.  If we are unlucky, the linker will assign symbol
"__earlycon_table" to a 32-byte aligned address which does not correspond
to the 64-byte aligned contents of section "__earlycon_table".

To address this same problem, the fix to the tracing system was
subsequently re-implemented using a more robust table of pointers approach
by commits:
 3d56e331b653 ("tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer array")
 654986462939 ("tracepoints: Fix section alignment using pointer array")
 e4a9ea5ee7c8 ("tracing: Replace trace_event struct array with pointer array")

Let's use this same "array of pointers to structs" approach for
EARLYCON_TABLE.
