c7fc2de0c8 memblock, bootmem: Round pfn properly for memory and reserved regions
We need to round memory regions correctly -- specifically, we need to
round reserved region in the more expansive direction (lower limit
down, upper limit up) whereas usable memory regions need to be rounded
in the more restrictive direction (lower limit up, upper limit down).

This introduces two set of inlines:

	memblock_region_memory_base_pfn()
	memblock_region_memory_end_pfn()
	memblock_region_reserved_base_pfn()
	memblock_region_reserved_end_pfn()

Although they are antisymmetric (and therefore are technically
duplicates) the use of the different inlines explicitly documents the
programmer's intention.

The lack of proper rounding caused a bug on ARM, which was then found
to also affect other architectures.

5e6f6aa1c2 memblock/arm: pfn_valid uses memblock_is_memory()
The implementation is pretty much similar. There is a -small- added
overhead by having another function call and the address shift.

If that becomes a concern, I suppose we could actually have memblock
itself expose a memblock_pfn_valid() which then ARM can use directly
with an appropriate #define...

1dbd30e989 ARM: 6225/1: make TCM allocation static and common for all archs
This changes the TCM handling so that a fixed area is reserved at
0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff for TCM. This areas is used by XScale but
XScale does not have TCM so the mechanisms are mutually exclusive.

This change is needed to make TCM detection more dynamic while
still being able to compile code into it, and is a must for the
unified ARM goals: the current TCM allocation at different places
in memory for each machine would be a nightmare if you want to
compile a single image for more than one machine with TCM so it
has to be nailed down in one place.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

b7cfda9fc3 ARM: Fix pfn_valid() for sparse memory
On OMAP platforms, some people want to declare to segment up the memory
between the kernel and a separate application such that there is a hole
in the middle of the memory as far as Linux is concerned.  However,
they want to be able to mmap() the hole.

This currently causes problems, because update_mmu_cache() thinks that
there are valid struct pages for the "hole".  Fix this by making
pfn_valid() slightly more expensive, by checking whether the PFN is
contained within the meminfo array.

dde5828f56 ARM: Fix broken highmem support
Currently, highmem is selectable, and you can request an increased
vmalloc area.  However, none of this has any effect on the memory
layout since a patch in the highmem series was accidentally dropped.
Moreover, even if you did want highmem, all memory would still be
registered as lowmem, possibly resulting in overflow of the available
virtual mapping space.

The highmem boundary is determined by the highest allowed beginning
of the vmalloc area, which depends on its configurable minimum size
(see commit 60296c71f6 for details on
this).

We should create mappings and initialize bootmem only for low memory,
while the zone allocator must still be told about highmem.

Currently, memory nodes which are completely located in high memory
are not supported.  This is not a huge limitation since systems
relying on highmem support are unlikely to have discontiguous memory
with large holes.

[ A similar patch was meant to be merged before commit 5f0fbf9eca
  and be available  in Linux v2.6.30, however some git rebase screw-up
  of mine dropped the first commit of the series, and that goofage

1522ac3ec9 [ARM] Fix virtual to physical translation macro corner cases
The current use of these macros works well when the conversion is
entirely linear.  In this case, we can be assured that the following
holds true:

	__va(p + s) - s = __va(p)

However, this is not always the case, especially when there is a
non-linear conversion (eg, when there is a 3.5GB hole in memory.)
In this case, if 's' is the size of the region (eg, PAGE_SIZE) and
'p' is the final page, the above is most definitely not true.

So, we must ensure that __va() and __pa() are only used with valid
kernel direct mapped RAM addresses.  This patch tweaks the code
to achieve this.

37efe6427d [ARM] use asm/sections.h
Update to use the asm/sections.h header rather than declaring these
symbols ourselves.  Change __data_start to _data to conform with the
naming found within asm/sections.h.

6db015e49c [ARM] mem_init() cleanups
Make free_area() arguments pfn based, and return number of freed pages.
This will simplify highmem initialization later.

Also, codepages, datapages and initpages are actually codesize, datasize
and initsize.

4b5f32cee0 [ARM] rationalize memory configuration code some more
Currently there are two instances of struct meminfo: one in
kernel/setup.c marked __initdata, and another in mm/init.c with
permanent storage.  Let's keep only the later to directly populate
the permanent version from arm_add_memory().

Also move common validation tests between the MMU and non-MMU cases
into arm_add_memory() to remove some duplication.  Protection against
overflowing the membank array is also moved in there in order to cover
the kernel cmdline parsing path as well.

d2a38ef9c1 [ARM] mm: provide helpers for accessing membanks
Provide helpers for getting physical addresses or pfns from the
meminfo array, and use them.  Move for_each_nodebank() to
asm/setup.h alongside the meminfo structure definition.
