Currently, numa & prom are the only users of drmem LMB walk code. Loading kdump with kexec_file also needs to walk the drmem LMBs to setup the usable memory ranges for kdump kernel. But there are couple of issues in using the code as is. One, walk_drmem_lmb() code is built into the .init section currently, while kexec_file needs it later. Two, there is no scope to pass data to the callback function for processing and/or erroring out on certain conditions. Fix that by, moving drmem LMB walk code out of .init section, adding scope to pass data to the callback function and bailing out when an error is encountered in the callback function.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
