Vishal Verma f075cf139f ACPI: HMAT: Fix initiator registration for single-initiator systems
[ Upstream commit 48d4180939e12c4bd2846f984436d895bb9699ed ]

In a system with a single initiator node, and one or more memory-only
'target' nodes, the memory-only node(s) would fail to register their
initiator node correctly. i.e. in sysfs:

  # ls /sys/devices/system/node/node0/access0/targets/
  node0

Where as the correct behavior should be:

  # ls /sys/devices/system/node/node0/access0/targets/
  node0 node1

This happened because hmat_register_target_initiators() uses list_sort()
to sort the initiator list, but the sort comparision function
(initiator_cmp()) is overloaded to also set the node mask's bits.

In a system with a single initiator, the list is singular, and list_sort
elides the comparision helper call. Thus the node mask never gets set,
and the subsequent search for the best initiator comes up empty.

Add a new helper to consume the sorted initiator list, and generate the
nodemask, decoupling it from the overloaded initiator_cmp() comparision
callback. This prevents the singular list corner case naturally, and
makes the code easier to follow as well.

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.
