Make memblock_double_array(), __memblock_alloc_base() and
memblock_alloc_nid() use memblock_reserve() instead of calling
memblock_add_region() with reserved array directly. This eases
debugging and updates to memblock_add_region().

Add optional region->nid which can be enabled by arch using

NUMA node information and replaces early_node_map[].
Newly added memblocks have MAX_NUMNODES as nid. Arch can then call
memblock_set_node() to set node information. memblock takes care of
merging and node affine allocations w.r.t. node information.
When MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, early_node_map[], related data

for_each_mem_pfn_range() behaves the same and its users don't have to

conditions while adding a new region, which is complicated and makes
it difficult to allow arbitrary overlaps or add more merge conditions
(e.g. node ID).
This re-implements memblock_add_region() such that insertion is done
in two steps - all non-overlapping portions of new area are inserted
as separate regions first and then memblock_merge_regions() scan and
merge all neighbouring compatible regions.
This makes addition logic simpler and more versatile and enables
adding node information to memblock.

Node affine memblock allocation logic is currently implemented across
memblock_alloc_nid() and memblock_alloc_nid_region(). This
reorganizes it such that it resembles that of non-NUMA allocation API.
Area finding is collected and moved into new exported function
memblock_find_in_range_node() which is symmetrical to non-NUMA
counterpart - it handles @start/@end and understands ANYWHERE and
ACCESSIBLE. memblock_alloc_nid() now simply calls
memblock_find_in_range_node() and reserves the returned area.
This makes memblock_alloc[_try]_nid() observe ACCESSIBLE limit on node
affine allocations too (again, this doesn't make any difference for
the current sole user - sparc64).

memblock_nid_range() is used to implement memblock_[try_]alloc_nid().
The generic version determines the range by walking early_node_map
with for_each_mem_pfn_range(). The generic version is defined __weak
to allow arch override.
Currently, only sparc overrides it; however, with the previous update
to the generic implementation, there isn't much to be gained with arch
override. Sparc would behave exactly the same with the generic
implementation.
This patch disallows arch override for memblock_nid_range() and make
both generic and sparc versions static.

Given an address range, memblock_nid_range() determines the node the
start of the range belongs to and upto where the range stays in the
same node.
It's implemented by calling get_pfn_range_for_nid(), which determines
min and max pfns for a given node, for each node and testing whether
start address falls in there. This is not only inefficient but also
incorrect when nodes interleave as min-max ranges for nodes overlap.
This patch reimplements memblock_nid_range() using
for_each_mem_pfn_range(). It's simpler, walks the mem ranges once and
can find the exact range the start address falls in.

After node affine allocation fails, memblock_alloc_try_nid() calls
memblock_alloc_base() with @max_addr set to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE.
This is inconsistent with memblock_alloc() and what the function's
sole user - sparc/mm/init_64 - expects, although it doesn't make any
difference as sparc64 doesn't have highmem and ACCESSIBLE equals
ANYWHERE.
This patch makes memblock_alloc_try_nid() use ACCESSIBLE instead of
ANYWHERE. This isn't complete as node affine allocation doesn't
consider memblock.current_limit. It will be handled with future
changes.
This patch doesn't introduce any behavior difference.

Currently memblock_reserve() or memblock_free() don't handle overlaps of
any kind. There is some special casing for coalescing exactly adjacent
regions but that's about it.
This is annoying because typically memblock_reserve() is used to mark
regions passed by the firmware as reserved and we all know how much we can
trust our firmwares...
Also, with the current code, if we do something it doesn't handle right
such as trying to memblock_reserve() a large range spanning multiple
existing smaller reserved regions for example, or doing overlapping
reservations, it can silently corrupt the internal region array, causing
odd errors much later on, such as allocations returning reserved regions
etc...
This patch rewrites the underlying functions that add or remove a region
to the arrays. The new code is a lot more robust as it fully handles
overlapping regions. It's also, imho, simpler than the previous
implementation.
In addition, while doing so, I found a bug where if we fail to double the
array while adding a region, we would remove the last region of the array
rather than the region we just allocated. This fixes it too.

Normally the ram is allocated dynamically, and this function is not

to the kernel (to retain the boot image), this function is used to check

However, some of my previous patches limit memblock_alloc() to the region

So we fix it by explicitely using MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE.

which uses the early_pfn_map[] if CONFIG_ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP

the pages can be scattered between nodes.
This implementation is inefficient due to our main algorithm and
callback construct wanting to work on an ascending addresses bases
while early_pfn_map[] would rather work with nid's (it's unsorted
at that stage). But it should work and we can look into improving
it subsequently, possibly using arch compile options to chose a

v2. Fix membase_alloc_nid_region() conversion
Since we allocate one more than needed, why not do a bit of sanity checking
here to ensure we don't walk past the end of the array ?

This is in preparation for having resizable arrays.
Note that we still allocate one more than needed, this is unchanged from
the previous implementation.
