Each memory block spans the same amount of sections/pages/bytes.  The size
is determined before the first memory block is created.  No need to store
what we can easily calculate - and the calculations even look simpler now.

Michal brought up the idea of variable-sized memory blocks.  However, if
we ever implement something like this, we will need an API compatibility
switch and reworks at various places (most code assumes a fixed memory
block size).  So let's cleanup what we have right now.

While at it, fix the variable naming in register_mem_sect_under_node() -
we no longer talk about a single section.

<title>driver/base/memory.c: validate memory block size early</title>

Let's validate the memory block size early, when initializing the memory
device infrastructure.  Fail hard in case the value is not suitable.

As nobody checks the return value of memory_dev_init(), turn it into a
void function and fail with a panic in all scenarios instead.  Otherwise,
we'll crash later during boot when core/drivers expect that the memory
device infrastructure (including memory_block_size_bytes()) works as
expected.

I think long term, we should move the whole memory block size
configuration (set_memory_block_size_order() and
memory_block_size_bytes()) into drivers/base/memory.c.

No longer needed, let's remove it.  Also, drop the "hint" parameter
completely from "find_memory_block_by_id", as nobody needs it anymore.

resides and simplify it.  While at it, add a type for the callback

Let's factor out removing of memory block devices, which is only
necessary for memory added via add_memory() and friends that created
memory block devices.  Remove the devices before calling
arch_remove_memory().

This finishes factoring out memory block device handling from
arch_add_memory() and arch_remove_memory().

<content type='text'>
Only memory to be added to the buddy and to be onlined/offlined by user
space using /sys/devices/system/memory/...  needs (and should have!)
memory block devices.

Factor out creation of memory block devices.  Create all devices after
arch_add_memory() succeeded.  We can later drop the want_memblock
parameter, because it is now effectively stale.

Only after memory block devices have been added, memory can be onlined
by user space.  This implies, that memory is not visible to user space
at all before arch_add_memory() succeeded.

While at it
 - use WARN_ON_ONCE instead of BUG_ON in moved unregister_memory()
 - introduce find_memory_block_by_id() to search via block id
 - Use find_memory_block_by_id() in init_memory_block() to catch
   duplicates

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: allow arch_remove_memory() without CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE</title>

<id>80ec922dbd87fd38d15719c86a94457204648aeb</id>
<content type='text'>
We want to improve error handling while adding memory by allowing to use
arch_remove_memory() and __remove_pages() even if
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is not set to e.g., implement something like:

	arch_add_memory()
	rc = do_something();
	if (rc) {
		arch_remove_memory();
	}

We won't get rid of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE for now, as it will require
quite some dependencies for memory offlining.

Failing while removing memory is mostly ignored and cannot really be
handled.  Let's treat errors in unregister_memory_section() in a nice way,
warning, but continuing.

<title>x86/platform/UV: Add adjustable set memory block size function</title>

Add a new function to "adjust" the current fixed UV memory block size
of 2GB so it can be changed to a different physical boundary.  This is
out of necessity so arch dependent code can accommodate specific BIOS
requirements which can align these new PMEM modules at less than the
default boundaries.

A "set order" type of function was used to insure that the memory block
size will be a power of two value without requiring a validity check.
64GB was chosen as the upper limit for memory block size values to
accommodate upcoming 4PB systems which have 6 more bits of physical
address space (46 becoming 52).

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: optimize memory hotplug</title>

<id>d0dc12e86b3197a14a908d4fe7cb35b73dda82b5</id>
<content type='text'>
During memory hotplugging we traverse struct pages three times:

1. memset(0) in sparse_add_one_section()
2. loop in __add_section() to set do: set_page_node(page, nid); and
   SetPageReserved(page);
3. loop in memmap_init_zone() to call __init_single_pfn()

This patch removes the first two loops, and leaves only loop 3.  All
struct pages are initialized in one place, the same as it is done during
boot.

The benefits:

 - We improve memory hotplug performance because we are not evicting the
   cache several times and also reduce loop branching overhead.

 - Remove condition from hotpath in __init_single_pfn(), that was added
   in order to fix the problem that was reported by Bharata in the above
   email thread, thus also improve performance during normal boot.

 - Make memory hotplug more similar to the boot memory initialization
   path because we zero and initialize struct pages only in one
   function.

 - Simplifies memory hotplug struct page initialization code, and thus
   enables future improvements, such as multi-threading the
   initialization of struct pages in order to improve hotplug
   performance even further on larger machines.
